Just got home from Craven Cottage to see Tomas Soucek (who else?!) score for West Ham closely followed by Jesse Lingard on his Hammers debut. This West Ham team are flying at the moment and what certainly helps is having so many goalscorers within the team. #WHUFC

Tomas Soucek is a massive revelation. One of the savviest signings in recent Premier League history. #WestHam

And his Czech mate was also getting high praise ??
?? cowboy @Coufi5 tamed @JackGrealish. "I would perhaps buy the lasso to catch him", he told me before the match. Running, fighting tirelessly he finally didn't need the lasso. Excellent convincing performance again! Bravo Cuf! @WestHam, @slaviaofficial #CzechMates pic.twitter.com/zIqa3Clj7l
