West Ham recorded a dramatic 4-3 victory over Huddersfield Town in the Premier League – and many of the club’s fans were thrilled with the impact of substitute Samir Nasri.

The Hammers fought from 3-1 down to somehow snatch three points on Saturday with a late comeback.

Angelo Ogbonna made it 3-2 with his goal, before centre-forward Javier Hernandez then scored in the 84th and 91st minute to win in the league.

Manuel Pellegrini’s side sit ninth in the table ahead of the upcoming international break and are still in the mix for the European spots despite an unusual campaign.

A selection of West Ham fans felt that Nasri made a real difference when he entered the action in the second-half.

The 31-year-old attacking midfielder managed to provide an assist for another substitute Hernandez and played a big role in the revival at the London Stadium.

He’s been used sparingly since his January arrival, but still showed glimpses of his quality and many want to see the playmaker earn a start.
