West Ham United manager Manuel Pellegrini is considering dropping Roberto for Saturday's clash with Chelsea.

The veteran Spaniard has conceded a shocking 20 goals in eight appearances since replacing Fabianski in September.

Fans want him out of the goal as soon as possible, and the Evening Standard says Pellegrini could start David Martin at Stamford Bridge.

Martin, son of Hammers legend Alvin Martin, was signed from Millwall as a free agent this past summer.

Although he has never featured in the Premier League, Martin was impressive for the Lions in the Championship.
