Supporters of West Ham United have been slating Manuel Lanzini after the club posted footage of the Argentine midfielder.
On Wednesday afternoon, the Hammers shared footage of the 27-year-old for ‘#InternationalDanceDay’ (per West Ham), which led some of the London Stadium faithful to slate him.
Got the moves like Manu? Happy #InternationalDanceDay! ?

I dont understand u lot, acting like he was prime Pirlo before he got his injury. Great player on his day but the last time he had that “day” was prob. mid 2018. On 100k and takes too much space for other promising players in the club. Time to move on

Should the Hammers be looking to sell Manuel Lanzini in the next transfer window?Yes, would be for the best
No, he'll return to form

In the Premier League this season, Lanzini has been the 12th-best performer for the Irons with a 6.65/10 average rating (per WhoScored).
However, the Argentine has not scored and only assisted twice in 19 league appearances (per WhoScored), which has evidently left supporters frustrated with the midfielder.
better at dancing than he is at football at the moment

What do we think?
As can be seen in the responses from West Ham supporters, they appear to be at the end of their tether with the 27-year-old and some want to see him sold.
However, while an average rating of 6.65/10 means that the midfielder has not been in top form, he has still been the 12th-best performer for the Irons (per WhoScored), which is by no means poor.
