Mohammed Kudus was told \u2018he\u2019s too good for West Ham\u2019 by fans after he scored a stunning acrobatic goal against Brentford.<\/p>\n
David Moyes\u2019 side travelled across London to take on the Bees in the Premier League on Saturday and the travelling fans were treated to a spectacular goal from the Ghanian. Kudus arrived in the summer from Ajax for \u00a338million and his impressive start to life continues.<\/p>\n
West Ham found themselves a goal down after just 11 minutes when Neal Maupay put the hosts ahead. But just eight minutes later parity was restored when Kudus acrobatically fired home Michail Antonio\u2019s cross.<\/p>\n

The looping cross from the left-hand side found Kudus who stepped up before leaping both feet into the air and connecting superbly with a scissor kick. His effort flew across Mark Flekken in the Bees goal and nestled in the far corner.<\/p>\n
Fans couldn\u2019t believe Kudus\u2019 goal as one fan said on Twitter: \u201cHe\u2019s too good for West Ham.\u201d A second commented: \u201cKUDUS making an impact!\u201d<\/p>\n

Other fans compared his success to the failure of Antony, who was a team-mate of his at Ajax before he made the \u00a386million move to Manchester United. <\/p>\n
One comment questioned Erik ten Hag\u2019s decision to sign the Brazilian over Kudus, saying: \u201cCoulda signed him instead of Antony tbh.\u201d A second added: \u201cHe cost 40m and Antony 100m btw\u201d, while a third wrote: \u201cAntony must learn.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kudus\u2019 goal was his second in the league in just his second start, the Ghanian also netted in the midweek EFL Cup win against Arsenal. After being eased into the side by Moyes, Kudus is thoroughly excelling and West Ham are reaping the rewards for showing him patience.<\/p>\n
Jarrod Bowen soon scored the Hammers\u2019 second of the game to put them 2-1 up at first-half. But a second-half turnaround saw Brentford retake the lead via an own goal from Konstantinos Mavropanos and a third from Nathan Collins.<\/p>\n
