WAYNE Bridge comes straight into the team to face Arsenal after completing his loan move from Manchester City this week.

Freddie Piquionne misses out with toothache so Carlton Cole leads the line on his own, with Zacon Hines and Freddie Sears providing the width behind him.

Scott Parker is out, meaning Mark Noble is joined in the centre of midfield by Radoslav Kovac and Jonathan Spector.

Bridge slots in at left-back with Matthew Upson moving back into the middle to partner James Tomkins.

West Ham: Green, Faubert, Upson, Tomkins, Bridge, Kovac, Noble, Spector, Sears, Hines, Cole. Subs: Boffin, Reid, Gabbidon, Barrera, Boa Morte, McCarthy, Nouble
