The Italian striker was a major flop in London but is now banging them in for Valencia.
West Ham United has been a Mecca for rubbish strikers over the last decade.
One of the biggest disappointments to grace the club in this time was Simone Zaza.
Zaza joined as a highly-rated Italian international who had scored eight goals in as many starts for Juventus.
But the 26-year-old was such a flop in London – failing to score in 11 appearances – that his season-long loan was cut short in January, when he joined Valencia.
Inevitably, as far as Hammers fans are concerned, Zaza has now found his shooting boots and is banging them in for Los Che.
In fact, Zaza has just collected the La Liga Player of the Month award for September thanks to a haul of four goals, including a hat-trick in a 5-0 thrashing of Malaga.
He pipped Lionel Messi to the prize, despite the Barcelona superstar netting seven times.
Cut to West Ham supporters feeling very sorry for themselves on Twitter…
