West Ham United striker Javier Hernandez has praised his teammate Marko Arnautovic on social networking site Twitter.

The former Manchester United striker has described Arnautovic as a “beast” following the Hammers’ 1-1 draw with Chelsea away from home at Stamford Bridge in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon.

While 29-year-old striker Hernandez scored the goal for West Ham in the London derby, the 28-year-old Austria international, who can operate as a forward or as a winger, was a key figure in the equaliser and played well.

Hernandez has scored eight goals in 16 Premier League starts for West Ham so far this season.

The Mexico international, who cost the Hammers £16 million in transfer fees when they signed him from Bayer Leverkusen in the summer of 2017 as stated on the club’s official website, is not guaranteed a place in David Moyes’s starting lineup, but the 29-year-old remains an important figure for the London club.

As for Arnautovic, the former Stoke City attacker is probably the best player on the books of West Ham at the moment.

The Austria international has scored nine goals and provided four assists in 22 Premier League starts for West Ham so far this season.
