The simple answer to that is ‘Yes’.

So fornals “inch perfect pass” that Antonio had to bust a gut to get to and then hook it back over his head to keep it in play. You honestly think he knew that would happen like that 😂😂😂

The pass from Fornals had to be inch perfect, and it was - and he clearly meant it. To do that, in that limited space, on that wet surface, was pure technique. I truly can’t believe anyone thinks otherwise.
He’s the most underrated player in our squad by an absolute landslide. He will start to score more goals too. He’s getting into the right positions and will start to take the chances. His work rate is unreal.

Too early to tell whether the pass was intended to work out like it did.
A few more similar moves will reveal that.

With a bit more confidence in front of goal he would be a superstar. Hard work rate, decent passing, seems to get himself in a few good positions. Seems to be wary of having a pop at goal though.

I agree with vexed. I think it was a bit of an aimless wasteful pass that Antonio done well to recover.
But he has improved and he’s worth his place in the team at the moment.

Side of Ham: thanks...yes, maybe.
I think Fornals is a perfect example of the current clicking of the team. He’s an essential component now that just appears to fit with the others. Tuesday’s spirited performance reminded me of the Leeds game: energy, determination and slick movement and understanding. I can’t remember a team since the Brooking era that had this. Fornals is certainly playing his part in this.

Re: Fornals

When Fornals arrived the impression was that we were bringing in a creative, flair player. Although this is not completely untrue, his game is mainly about energy and being more box to box. Perhaps this was the reason for criticisms early on. Where did this misconception originate?

Funny how people get a bit sensitive when people don't agree with them. Just an opinion. Surely getting upset over something like this is the true measure of how simple someone is?
What say you Block?

Based on last night or the Doncaster game, nobody in a west ham shirt has had a bad game.

Spot on, the only times I saw him comment on the match thread was when Benrahma lost the ball..

Re: Fornals

Some people just paint themselves into a corner on certain players. They then feel they can never give them any credit and are quick to jump on to comment when they make a mistake. Fornals has had a lot of vocal detractors like that on here. Benrahma has a few also. Always gonna happen, football fans can be thick as fuck sometimes.

'Benrahma is currently benefiting from the fact that we have a wafer thin squad with washed up has beens like Lanzini and Yarmolenko on the bench'
Yet when he wanted to give Lanzini a go did he replace Benrahma, nope it was Fornals who made way which disproves that theory.
He can't do anymore than create chances, put one on a plate for Antonio who missed it or he would have had an assist..

Re: Fornals

Block, I think Vexty just don't like certain individuals getting the credit, as in Fornals case, there is one for his misses, BUT, like I said further down I like having these midfielders ghosting in and having these chances in the first place better.
That equaliser was a great team effort, as we now have a balance where left or right have little triangles of play to then create a chance anywhere inside the box.....it's fucking excellent.

Did you not notice the amount of work he did, the number of times he won the ball back and began our attacks. He was excellent last night, top class, hard working performance. You are clearly watching the game looking for the guy to fail.

It was a little too close to the byline and arrived a little too rapidly BUT it was a good ball for Antonio who does his best work on instinct not form and design it took 3 (THREE) defenders out of the game.
It showed vision and when married up with endeavour it created a very good goal.
