A lot of West Ham fans have reacted to an Instagram post by the club which shows a great piece of trickery performed by defender Arthur Masuaku at Wembley.
The Hammers were up against rivals Tottenham Hotspur when the full-back was being closed down by Heung-Ming Son and Serge Aurier, and he looked likely to be dispossessed. However, he managed to kick the ball up with one foot and, whilst the ball was in the air, he tapped it past both players and got in behind them. The footage was shared via @westham on the social media platform.
Masuaku has been a player who has divided fans on his performances since he joined the club in 2016. He has featured 91 times, scoring one goal and picking up seven assists along the way, via Transfermarkt.

He is now seen more as cover for Aaron Cresswell and this has prompted many to want to see him leave in the summer so the club can get back some of the £6.39m million that they spent on him, despite the occasional pieces of trickery like the memorable one against Tottenham.
Hammers fans, what are your thoughts on Masuaku? Comment below with your views!
