There has been plenty of excitement ever since Pablo Fornals signed for West Ham.
YouTube compilations have added fuel to the fire, with goals such as the chip against Real Madrid getting Hammers hoping they will see something similar.
It may not be in a claret and blue shirt yet, but many fans will likely have been watching the former Villarreal man this summer, to help get a more well-rounded view of what he can offer.
He has been playing in the U21 Euros for Spain, coming off the bench in both of their games so far.
Whoever watched the games will have been excited by his performances, but whether or not they saw it live, most West Ham fans will have been wowed by this strike:

The 23-year-old ran at the heart of the Belgium defence, before smashing the ball into the top corner out of goalkeeper Ortwin De Wolf’s reach.
Fornals gave a good account of himself during his 45 minutes on the pitch, getting a WhoScored rating of 7.84
However, it is the wow moment of his 89th minute winner which has captured the imagination of many West Ham supporters.
A selection of Twitter reaction to the goal, including posts from excited West Ham fans, can be seen below:
