Experienced West Ham ace says David Moyes made an ‘amazing’ signing this summer
West Ham right-back Vladimir Coufal has been blown away by one new signing at the London Stadium in particular.
Vladimir Coufal has experienced somewhat of a renaissance at West Ham this season, and the feel-good factor has definitely returned at the London Stadium.
Hammers boss David Moyes worked wonders in the transfer market over the summer, and it could be argued that we’re now a far stronger team without Declan Rice.
One of the real standout players to have arrived at West Ham during the off-season is James Ward-Prowse.
The 28-year-old has taken us up a notch as a team and his ability to deliver pinpoint accurate set-pieces has made us a side to be feared from corners and free-kicks…
Vladimir Coufal is really happy West Ham signed one specific player in the summer
The Czech Republic international spoke to reporters after our 2-0 win over Sheffield United on Saturday afternoon.
And Coufal responded when asked by the press about what Ward-Prowse brings to the team, as quoted by Yahoo:

“Everybody sees it and everybody knows it because [Ward-Prowse] is a very experienced player. His ability to put the ball exactly to the spot where he wants it is amazing. We are really happy he is here.”
That’s absolutely spot on from the 31-year-old – Ward-Prowse is an exceptional player.
To label him as a set-piece specialist does him a disservice – he is so much more than that. Ward-Prowse is technically brilliant, has a really impressive engine and work ethic and is a genuine leader.
He has bagged five assists and two goals in just seven games for West Ham so far this season (Transfermarkt).
The former Southampton man has brought so much to the Hammers and alongside Edson Alvarez, we now have an incredibly strong central midfield unit.
Vladimir Coufal is clearly a huge fan of his new West Ham teammate and the Czech right-back’s comments on the 28-year-old prove just how important he has already become to West Ham.
