From The Sun: West Ham’s cracking start to the season has been a surprise. Ferdinand, 20, said: "It’s a long, hard season and our main concern is to stay in the Premiership.
"It’s a big learning curve for me but I love playing against very good strikers every week. That can only make me step up my game and keep improving as a player."
From The Times: The West Ham United defender has not missed a minute of Barclays Premiership action this season and started all six qualifying games for Peter Taylor’s young England team, culminating in Tuesday’s fractious 2-1 defeat by France in the European Championship play-off second leg in Nancy.
Anton, 20, said. "After the frustration against France, I want to make sure we beat Tottenham."
