Declan Rice reacts to West Ham win, claims midfielder was ‘unbelievable’ last night – originally posted on Sportslens.com
West Ham United picked up a 3-2 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League last night.
David Moyes’s side have now moved into the top four after last night’s victory and it remains to be seen whether the Hammers can qualify for Champions League football by finishing the season strongly.
The visitors were without star player Declan Rice but they managed to get the job done and the fans will be delighted with the determination and effort from the players.
Experienced midfielder Mark Noble filled in for Rice on the night and he was outstanding for the Hammers.
Noble’s quality and experience made a big difference for the Hammers at the centre of the park and Rice took to Twitter to hail the West Ham captain’s performance.
The experienced West Ham ace has regressed over the past year but he managed to step up and deliver when his side needed him last night.
No criticism please
. Unbelievable tonight

Furthermore, Rice also reacted to his side’s win over Wolves on Twitter. The 22-year-old claimed that it was a huge three points for the Londoners.
Do not underestimate how big a win that is for the boys! Into the top 4, 8 games to go! Special group this! Love it. @WestHam

With just eight matches remaining, a top-four finish is no longer unrealistic for the Hammers.
Although the likes of Chelsea, Tottenham and Liverpool are breathing down their necks, the Hammers have shown that they have what it takes to win their remaining games and finish above the traditional top clubs.
West Ham have the likes of Ogbonna and Rice returning from injury soon and that will only strengthen them further.
