Signing of the season?

The West Ham playmaker has been simply outstanding in the league this season and he carried over that form into the FA Cup fifth round clash against Blackburn Rovers.

The Frenchman managed to get his name on the scoresheet for the Hammers again, with an exceptional effort from a set piece.

Payet lined the ball up and absolutely walloped a free kick that sailed over the wall before curling into the bottom corner, beyond the reach of the opposition keeper.

Payet’s second of the game wasn’t half bad either. The Frenchman channeled his inner Alan Judge to score a sublime solo effort.
