Alan Smith

But you heard it there, Jamie.

Go make yourself a hero.

That's what Skipper said to him.

Was it written in the stars, do you think, for Antonio, given the week that he's had?

You've got to make it happen.

And I love his attitude.

I thought last year he came into the Premier League a bit of a breath of fresh air.

You know, he's old school.

I said before the game, he's fantastic aerial ability at a far post is going to cause anyone problems.

And to have the week that he's had, it must have been a nightmare, Mark.

He didn't hazard the weekend, doesn't really want to play right back, got his opportunity to play slightly further forward, and he took it.

And he was hard to pick a man in a match.

I agree to what Alan said in commentary, it really was, because it was a game that lacked quality.

But for...

Slav and Bilic, I think they have to go a long way this season to get a better feeling, more of a relief from any three points he wins this season.

To not have Lanzini and Payet and Carroll and Ayew and those players.

They're the players that make a difference in this team.

So that was a huge three points for West Ham.

Make no mistake, and it gives them a lot of confidence to enjoy this place now.

And it will start to feel more like home every week now.
