West Ham United are preparing to take on Shrewsbury Town in the FA Cup this evening and they could be without two key players.
Andy Carroll is still injured and will miss tonight’s Third Round replay while Javier Hernandez is doubtful.
The Mexican faces a late fitness test due to illness and he could miss out too.
That leaves David Moyes with few options up front but West Ham fans have voiced their opinion on who should be given a chance.
Prolific young striker Toni Martinez, who has been scoring bags of goals in the youth team, made his first team debut as a substitute in the corresponding fixture, which finished 0-0 at Shrewsbury.
West Ham fans are now hoping that the young Spaniard gets his opportunity to prove himself in the first team and have called for him to be handed a start.
Here are a selection of the best tweets from West Ham fans urging Moyes to select Martinez tonight.

So potentially no Hernandez or Carroll tonight. Ayew & Toni Martinez to start upfront? #WHUFC #WHU

"Andy Carroll is not fit yet. Chicharito came in this morning but was sent home unwell, and we don't know if he will be okay for tomorrow. We will see in the morning where everyone is."
