In an instant high profile footballers can go from hero to zero and long memories can become incredibly short very quickly, it is the lot of a professional player but they are rewarded with enormous wages. With such rewards comes a duty to perform at the highest level and little credence is given to the excuse of having a bad day at the office.

To the neutral and to the visiting supporters, the game between West Ham and Brentford on Sunday afternoon was a beautiful and wondrous spectacle. End to end stuff and football of the highest order thrilled fans from West London in the first half as their team out 'West Hammed' West Ham with their slick inter play and blistering counter attacks.
