Even Crystal Palace fans have raved about the performances of West Ham United midfielders Declan Rice and Tomas Soucek last night.

West Ham ran out 3-2 winners at Selhurst Park but, in truth, David Moyes’s side could have won by a wider margin.

West Ham dominated the game from start to finish, with Rice and Soucek really setting the tone for their side.

And Palace fans were very complimentary about the West Ham duo after the game.

Soucek actually stole the headlines last night, as he scored twice as West Ham sealed the three points.

Rice’s display was equally impressive though, with the defensive midfielder continuing to increase his reputation as one of the finest defensive shields in the league.

Rice and Soucek have both been key to West Ham’s strong first half of the campaign, with Moyes’s men making great progress in recent weeks.

West Ham have now climbed into the top four, and seem to have the quality to really mount a challenge for Europe this term.
