West Ham fans react as Nathan Holland scores twice for Oxford United

West Ham United youngster Nathan Holland got Oxford United back on track on Tuesday night with a superb brace during a 5-0 win over Wimbledon.

His goals were the first he has scored for Karl Robinson’s team in League One, having arrived at the club during the January transfer window.

Holland is highly thought of at West Ham but has been allowed out on loan to cut his teeth in men’s football.

He netted in a 3-2 defeat to Newcastle United in the FA Cup earlier this month and looks set for a bright future.

The winger has typically played on the left-hand side for Oxford, although he is more than capable of playing on the right flank too.

Following his latest brace, West Ham United supporters have been reacting. It’s fair to say that several of the club’s loyal fanbase can’t wait for him to return to the London Stadium.

The 21-year-old could have a bright future in the capital and some have been discussing when he might get a chance to shine.

West Ham have a proud history when it comes to youngsters stepping up the first-team and Holland could be the next off the conveyor belt.

Here is a selection of tweets from Hammers supporters after Holland’s latest performance:
