| Enner Valencia hurt his knee in the Europe League first leg against Astra in July |
WEST HAM striker Enner Valencia has attacked the medical team at Upton Park over the treatment of his knee injury.
The Ecuador international sustained the injury during their draw against Astra Giurgiu last month in the Europe League.
Valencia was stretchered off the pitch and initial fears suggested a significant long term injury but the 25-year-old was ruled out for just three months.
Speaking to radio station La Deportiva, Valencia claims West Ham have "forgotten" about his injury and he doesn't even know what his injury is.
"West Ham seem to have forgotten that I'm injured," he said.
"But they don't let me speak to another doctor. I don't understand why West Ham doctors are doing this to me.
"The truth is that West Ham have not been supporting me.
"I have tried to ask an external doctor but the doctor of West Ham doesn't want me to ask another doctor. It's my health we are talking about here.
"I have been injured for a month and I still don't know what the name of my injury is."
West Ham are in the middle of a striker crisis with Andy Carroll injured and no date set for his return.
And last season's leading goalscorer Diafra Sakho has been bailed by the police after being arrested on suspicion of making threats to kill and witness intimidation.
