Supporters of West Ham United have been reacting to a club post on Albian Ajeti in which the Hammers wished the player a happy birthday.
On Wednesday, the Irons posted their birthday message to the 23-year-old attacker (as per West Ham), which had fans discussing the Swiss international.

Still waiting to celebrate him scoring a goal. Not likely any time soon with him not even making the bench.

Has Albian Ajeti been given a fair crack at playing for the Hammers yet?No, eight sub apps is not enough
Yes, he just wasn't good enough |
Ajeti signed for the Hammers last summer on a four-year contract in an £8-million switch from Swiss club, FC Basel (as per BBC).
However, since his arrival at the London Stadium, the frontman has featured in just eight Premier League outings, during which he has neither scored nor assisted (per Transfermarkt), leaving fans baffled.
Who? 8m well spent!

More mismanaged talent.

If Haller is lazy and incapable why aren’t we giving this guy a chance?

What do we think?
With the Swiss striker coming in as the worst-performing player that has featured in the Premier League for the Irons so far this term over his eight substitute appearances, with a 5.97/10 average rating (per WhoScored), that may shed some light on why he does not feature.
However, as some supporters aired in their reaction to the club post, they do not feel as though Ajeti has been given a fair crack for the Hammers yet, which may offer an explanation to his poor average rating (per WhoScored).
