Hammers midfielder shrugs off calf complaint
Freddie Ljungberg has brushed off any fitness worries after picking up a knock in West Ham United's win over Blackburn Rovers.
The midfielder was replaced towards the end of Saturday's 2-1 victory at Upton Park after taking a kick to his calf.
But the Sweden international has confirmed that it is not a serious problem and he has already shaken off the effects of the knock.
"I got a cramp in the calf due to that blow," Ljungberg told
Expressen. "That's the reason I was forced to go off.
"It feels really good now."
Character
Meanwhile, Ljungberg was relieved to see the Hammers collect the points against Blackburn to end a run of three successive 4-0 defeats.
He added to the club's
official website: "It was nice to win after what happened in the last couple of weeks.
"We were one-nil down as well and still showed some character. We scored some goals.
"Blackburn are a big physical team and that makes it hard sometimes, but we got the ball down and we could play some football."
