West Ham smashed their way past Macclesfield Town on Wednesday evening, securing an 8-0 win to put their name amongst Saturday’s fourth-round draw.
The victory was the Hammers’ largest since 1983 and extends an impressive run of form under Manuel Pellegrini to three matches unbeaten in all competitions, following the victory over Everton and the goalless draw with Chelsea.
Pellegrini named a strong side for the hosting of the League Two minnows but also handed an opportunity to 20-year-old winger Grady Diangana, who took his chance with both hands after scoring a brace on his senior debut.
The winger faces a wealth of competition in the battle to earn regular first-team football with the East London side, who also boast the likes of Robert Snodgrass, Michail Antonio, Andriy Yarmolenko and Felipe Anderson in their ranks, but fans were impressed by the youngster’s performance.
We have gathered some of the best reactions to Diangana’s display below.
