A number of West Ham fans have taken to Twitter to comment on Aaron Mooy’s performance against Manuel Pellegrini’s side on Saturday – with plenty suggesting that they would like to see the Hammers make a move for the Australian in the summer.

The 28-year-old found a teammate with 39 of his 42 passes. According to Whoscored, Declan Rice was the only player from either side to start the game who went on to have a better pass completion rate. He also won three challenges on an agonising afternoon for Huddersfield.

The Times reported last May that West Ham were leading the chase to sign Mooy in the summer. And based on the reaction to his display on Saturday, it appears that many fans would like to see the club make another move for him at the end of this campaign.
