Pablo Fornals is delighted that manager David Moyes has made eight new signings and believes competition will become the key to success at the club this season.
In fact, the Spanish attacking midfielder reckons competition for places in the starting line-up has never been keener and was himself on the pitch against Wolves only after Maxwel Cornet was injured.
First Premier League goals of the season from Gianluca Scamacca and Jarrod Bowen secured the Hammers a third consecutive home win over Wolves, with David Moyes’ outfit keeping their second clean sheet of the league season as the team grabbed their first home win of the season and their second in the Premier league/.
Fornals says the quality of the squad means that competition for places will help the Hammers battle in both Europe and the Premier League this season as the new signings settle into the squad.
Speaking to www.whufc.com the No 8 said: “This is not Pablo Fornals’ team; this is West Ham United. It’s about competition, and I think competition is going to improve everyone.
“We made some really good signings in the summer. They have given different points and different styles to the team. And people who have been here for more time have to show everyone they deserve to start now. So obviously, we are always in a positive mood because we are a team, and we 100% agree that this is going to help us.
“Whether people start or don’t, have more minutes in the league or in the Europa Conference League, this is competition. Everyone in the team is going to improve [because of that.]”
