Former West Ham United midfielder Trevor Sinclair has praised the club’s efforts despite losing 2-1 to Crystal Palace at the London Stadium yesterday. 

West Ham lost a hard-fought game against the Eagles after a late Jordan Ayew goal was given following a close VAR decision.

Their goal, in particular, was a wonderfully worked move which was swept home by Sebastien Haller. 

It had West Ham fans purring and Sinclair was in agreement with them. The former England international, who spent five years at Upton Park, took to Twitter to reveal his appreciation for the West Ham goal and performance yesterday. 

West Ham have had a positive start to the new season and fans would have undoubtedly enjoyed their first goal yesterday. 

It is a shame that it came in a losing effort but there is no doubt that Manuel Pellegrini has West Ham playing some of the best football since the early days of Slaven Bilic or Harry Redknapp. 

Hopefully, it can continue and result in more wins then narrow losses.
