Pep Guardiola raves about West Ham trio
There is absolutely no shame in losing to arguably the best team on the planet at the moment.
The Hammers put up a real fight and it is clear to see that we are no longer a team who will roll over.
Pep Guardiola was certainly impressed. The Man City boss praised three West Ham players who stood out this afternoon, as quoted via NY Press News:
“The physicality is really impressive and now I think they have the quality to play with [Jesse] Lingard and [Pablo] Fornals and Antonio is always so difficult to control.”
Guardiola’s praise will be well received in East London.
Lingard, Fornals and Antonio will surely feel great, having been praised by the best manager in the world.
West Ham are on the right track to achieve really good things.
And Pep’s praise today highlights just how far we have come as a football club.
