West Ham United manager David Moyes expressed his admiration for Ghanaian star Mohammed Kudus after a stellar performance against Wolverhampton Wanderers, where the Hammers secured a convincing 3-0 victory at the London Stadium.
Kudus, in his remarkable debut season with West Ham, scored his first brace, netting twice within ten minutes to give his team a significant lead.
"We’ve not often been able to do it after Thursday night games, which is something we’ve talked about a bit, and I thought we were more aggressive with everything we did in the first part of the game. It led to a couple of really good goals," Moyes remarked, highlighting the team's improved approach.
"There were not easy chances, they were really difficult finishes and they were brilliantly done by Mohammed Kudus and Jarrod Bowen. Lucas Paquetá got three assists today as well. The players we put in to give us the attacking threat really performed today," Moyes added, acknowledging the impressive contributions of Kudus, Bowen, and Paquetá.
The Ghanaian midfielder has demonstrated his goal-scoring prowess, with five goals in the Premiership and eight in all competitions since his summer move from Dutch giants Ajax. Moyes commended Kudus for his impactful role in the team's success.
Kudus' brace was particularly commendable, showcasing his ability to convert challenging chances into goals. Moyes emphasized the difficulty of the finishes, highlighting the skill and precision demonstrated by Kudus during the match.
The manager also acknowledged the team's struggle to maintain performance levels after Thursday night games, making the victory even more satisfying. Moyes credited the players for their increased aggression and effectiveness in the early stages of the game.
Jarrod Bowen, another key player mentioned by Moyes, contributed to the attacking threat alongside Kudus and Paquetá. The manager recognized the collective effort of the players who were instrumental in securing the victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Lucas Paquetá's three assists in the match didn't go unnoticed, and Moyes highlighted his significant role in creating goal-scoring opportunities for the team. The trio of Kudus, Bowen, and Paquetá showcased their synergy in providing the necessary attacking threat.
Kudus' goal tally of five in the Premiership and eight in all competitions is a testament to his impactful presence since joining West Ham from Ajax. Moyes praised the Ghanaian's consistency and contribution to the team's overall success.
