Michail Antonio has scored two goals in two games for the Hammers and BBC Match of the day interviewer told him: “You got your first goal against Southampton, it is fair to say you didn’t know an awful lot about it but you knew about this one”
“Ah definitely, that goal was a bit of luck, but this today I got to the back post and managed to head it in and get the first goal so hopefully I can keep the run going” replied Antonio
Antonio tweeted after the match “Great result, delighted to score again, let’s keep this going”
West Ham signed the winger from Nottingham Forest last September. The 25 year old wide man put pen to paper on a four-year contract with a further two-year option for £7m. At this rate it will be tough for Victor Moses to force his way back to the first team and he is likely to join Carl Jenkinson on the bench of highly paid players who will have to wait for their chance.
