London - West Ham United manager Sam Allardyce revealed on Thursday that Ecuadorean striker Enner Valencia could miss this weekend's game against Arsenal after cutting his toe on a broken mug.

"Enner has had an accident at home and has cut his big toe quite severely on a broken cup," Allardyce told a press conference.
