Hammers ace Pablo Fornals thinks he has spotted something that will seriously excite West Ham fans ahead of Sevilla.
It is fair to say West Ham have struggled for any kind of consistent form since that momentum-killing November international break.
West Ham now face two of the biggest weeks in their modern history and a genuine crossroads in the season.
Games in the league against Aston Villa and Tottenham loom with the two-legged last 16 tie against Sevilla sandwiched in between before the March international break.
Stuttering form and results had left West Ham fans fearing a hugely promising season is going to fizzle out.
West Ham fans are still resentful towards the club that David Moyes is going into this period with a desperately shallow squad.
Pablo Fornals has spotted something that will seriously excite West Ham fans ahead of Sevilla
There have been some signs against Wolves and more so in defeat to Liverpool, though, that performances are improving.
And Hammers ace Fornals thinks he has spotted something that will seriously excite West Ham fans ahead of Sevilla and the run in.
That there are clear signs the free-scoring West Ham which started this season on fire is slowly but surely on the way back (whufc.com).
“It’s one of them where probably we could have scored three goals in the first half (against Liverpool) and it was the same against Southampton (in the FA Cup defeat),” Fornals said on the club’s official site ahead of West Ham’s game against Sevilla.
“It’s a thing we can keep improving on (our finishing).
“A few games ago, we didn’t have this many chances so it’s a thing to be proud of and obviously we need to improve and put the ball in the goal.”
The signs are certainly there.
As Fornals states – and as Moyes has recently admitted – West Ham were struggling to create chances in recent months.
But the Hammers could and should have been a couple of goals up in the 3-1 cup defeat at Southampton.
And goodness only knows how West Ham did not get at least a draw at Liverpool having created more chances than any other away side at Anfield in the Jurgen Klopp era.
Now if we can just apply that finishing touch, West Ham could hit top form again at the most perfect and important time of the campaign.
