Speaking to the West Ham website ahead of the match, the England midfielder said: “I’ve invited a little lad Ronnie to be my mascot for Saturday’s game. He has a condition which affects his legs, and his splints were covered in pictures of me. “He sent me a video and it really touched me, so I sent him a message and he replied in absolute shock, which took me back. “I have invited Ronnie and his family along so I can meet them all after the game and I hope they all have a really nice day.”
