  • Ghana midfielder Mohammed Kudus excelled in West Ham's game against Man City
  • The Hammers suffered their second home defeat of the season to the EPL champions
  • Kudus will join the Black Stars next week for the upcoming AFCON qualifiers in Kumasi

Mohammed Kudus produced another starring display for West Ham United in their defeat to champions Manchester City at the London Olympic Stadium.

The attacking midfielder, who scored eight times last season is yet to open his account this season despite his outstanding performances for the club, per Transfermarkt.

Kudus has mostly flourished on the right side of attack but under new manager Julen Lopetegui, he has been deployed on the left side of offense.

West Ham United have been unsuccessful at home this season, losing to Aston Villa and Manchester City in London. However, their only victory was on the road against Crystal Palace.
