West Ham United are slowly emerging as a real attacking force this season.
Cardiff boss Neil Warnock addressed the media yesterday, ahead of his side’s clash with West Ham tonight, and offered high word’s of praise for the Hammers’ attacking players, suggesting that they are right up there with any other attacking force in the division, as quoted by Wales Online.
West Ham have made a relatively poor start to their 2018/19 Premier League campaign, but Saturday’s win away at Newcastle United will have given them a much needed confidence boost heading into the hectic festive period.
Manuel Pellegrini brought nine new faces into the club this summer, including Felipe Anderson from Lazio for £42.5 million.
The Brazilian initially struggled to settle in east London, but he has been in superb form of late.
Pellegrini’s other attacking options have been impressive in recent weeks too.
Last time out against Newcastle, the Chilean started Javier Hernandez and Marko Arnautovic through the middle, with Anderson and Robert Snodgrass supporting out wide.
And Warnock offered high words of praise for the West Ham quartet when speaking to reporters yesterday, as quoted by Wales Online:
“They’ve got a very good front four, as good as anybody in the division really. I would have any of those four.”
West Ham will be looking to record their first back-to-back wins in the Premier League since January 2017 with a victory tonight, and if their front four play to their full potential, they have every chance of doing just that.
