West Ham United picked up yet another win on Tuesday night, beating Crystal Palace 3-2 at Selhurst Park.

The Hammers rallied back from Wilfried Zaha’s opener to score three unanswered goals, with Tomas Soucek bagging a brace before Craig Dawson bagged what proved to be the winner.

Michy Batshuayi did bag a late consolation, but the Hammers ran out winners to move up to fourth in the table.

David Moyes is working wonders at the London Stadium, and few can really argue with the decision to bring him in for Manuel Pellegrini in 2019.

His own signings such as Soucek and Jarrod Bowen are thriving, but he’s also getting plenty out of a Pellegrini signing in Pablo Fornals.

Fornals was in superb form against Palace last night, recording four key passes, three successful dribbles, one shot on target, one tackle won and one interception.

The 24-year-old is starting to justify his £25million price tag, and he has now earned huge praise from ex-Hammer Trevor Sinclair.

Sinclair has taken to Twitter to suggest that Fornals is becoming a ‘top player’ under Moyes, even though he isn’t earning huge praise for his displays.
