Fulham boss Scott Parker has praised West Ham United’s squad ahead of tomorrow’s game, singling out Jesse Lingard as a ‘top, top player’.
West Ham are due to travel to Craven Cottage tomorrow evening, when they will be favourites to pick up the three points.
And Parker admits that his former side have put together a very strong side under David Moyes now.
“It’s a dynamic squad,” Parker said to Fulham’s official website.
“Antonio up top is a real focal point for them. Lingard now comes in who is a top, top quality player.
“They have goals in midfield in Soucek, who is a set play threat as well, and we saw that in the game early on when we played them away from home.
“They are an all round very good team and a well put together team.”
West Ham’s recruitment really has impressed and the quality of their team was very evident in their last showing.
Moyes’s side won 3-1 against Aston Villa in midweek, in a game which they totally dominated.
Lingard was the star of the show, as he scored twice on debut, but plenty of other West Ham players impressed on the evening.
The Hammers will now be aiming to carry their momentum into Saturday’s game, where they are favourites to pick up the three points again.
If West Ham can win they will move up into the top four, ahead of Liverpool’s game against Manchester City on Sunday.
