The West Ham United winger is living up to the hype, following his big money summer move.
Paul Merson suggested that West Ham ace Felipe Anderson is capable of winning matches on his own, when speaking exclusively to Sky Sports, whilst stating that Manuel Pellegrini’s men are on fire at the moment.
The 25-year-old arrived in England in the summer with a lot of pressure on his shoulders, after the Hammers paid £42 million in order to obtain his services.
And Anderson has not disappointed.
In 19 Premier League games, he has chalked up eight goals and two assists, and he has played a major contributing role for his side during their recent run of five wins in six games.
The Brazilian’s list of admirers is growing by the week, and Merson is certainly a big fan of the winger.
The Sky Sports pundit raved about Anderson, when speaking exclusively to Sky Sports:
“West Ham are on fire, and Felipe Anderson is a match winner on his own.”
West Ham will be aiming to finish inside the top seven this season, and should Anderson continue to play in the manner that he has been over the past month or so, the east London outfit will have every chance of achieving just that.
