He blamed their unforgiving fixture list, saying they are \u2018mentally and physically\u2019 exhausted.<\/p>\n<p>Moyes used his full quota of five substitutes for the first time this season in that loss, including removing Lucas Paqueta, who has been playing with an injury recently, and Pablo Fornals, another one impacted by illness.<\/p>\n<p>It is understood he made the decision to cancel training for the next two days after witnessing the defeat. Mail Sport can now reveal West Ham\u2019s squad are due to return to Rush Green on Wednesday ahead of hosting Freiburg on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/11\/12\/78820329-0-image-a-6_1702298736251.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>David Moyes is set to give his West Ham players two days off to cope with fatigue and sickness\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/11\/12\/78820655-12850273-image-a-22_1702299189239.jpg\" height=\"436\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Several players were affected by illness ahead of their 5-0 hammering by Fulham on Sunday\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>A win or a draw at the London Stadium would be enough for West Ham to finish top of their Europa League group and qualify for the knockout stages.<\/p>\n<p>Yet if they are beaten by the German visitors, the Hammers will be forced to add another two games to their schedule via a two-legged play-off in February.<\/p>\n<p>Fulham wiped the floor with West Ham as their impressive win came courtesy of five different scorers.
