Michail Antonio makes honest West Ham admission amid game time struggles this season

West Ham United striker Michail Antonio admits he is not happy to settle for second best after losing his starting place in the West Ham side to Gianluca Scamacca.

Having scored ten goals in each of the previous three Premier League campaigns, Jamaican international striker Antonio has in recent months lost his starting spot in the West Ham side to summer arrival Scamacca following his £30.5million move from Serie A side Sassuolo in July.
