Pellegrini welcomes tough choice
West Ham boss Manuel Pellegrini is pleased to have a number of attacking options to choose from as he aims to help his side finish the season on a positive note.
The Hammers have lost just one of their last five Premier League games and that was a narrow 1-0 reverse at reigning champions Manchester City.
Having good options for me is a solution, not a problem.

And Pellegrini had been pleased with the form shown by Javier Hernandez, while he is delighted to have Marko Arnautovic fully recovered from injury and challenging for a starting spot.
Ahead of a Saturday trip to take on Cardiff City, the Chilean told reporters: "Javier is in a good moment - his commitment with the team, he is making good movements in attack.
"Maybe, as with all other strikers, they want to score more goals, but he is involved in the play that allows us to score.
"We also have now coming back Marko Arnautovic, so I think we also have an option also not only in the starting eleven, but we have important options on the bench also.
"I always say for a manager it is more difficult when you don't have players (to choose from). Having good options for me is a solution, not a problem."
Arnautovic and Hernandez both started when the Bluebirds were beaten 3-1 at the London Stadium earlier this season.
The Irons can be backed at 21/20 to claim all three points at the Cardiff City Stadium this weekend, with the draw priced at 23/10, while Arnautovic is available at 8/5 to score at any time in the game.
