Fans of West Ham United have been reacting to a report which has emerged on the Hammers’ full-back Arthur Masuaku.
According to Football.london, the left-back can no longer be trusted by the Irons as he has ‘regressed badly’ (via @WHUFCFZ), which had lots of fans talking.
West Ham left-back Arthur Masuaku is believed to no longer be trusted by West Ham's coaching staff.
They feel that he has "regressed massively" over the past twelve months, and it would be no surprise if he was sold this summer.

I’d personally get rid of him or if not use him as a winger as he cannot defend to save his life, keep Cress as backup and bring in a new left back not sure who would go to sign

Why not move him to left midfield & move Anderson into the centre behind Haller?? Simples?? ?

Should West Ham be looking to sell Arthur Masuaku in the next transfer window?Yes, he needs to go
No, he should stay

Over the duration of the season so far, the DR Congo defender has been the 14th-best performer for the Hammers in the Premier League with a 6.63/10 average rating (per WhoScored).
The rating has seemingly convinced supporters that the 26-year-old is not good enough as many aired their feelings after the report was shared to Twitter (via @WHUFCFZ).
finally. he has scored 1 good goal & last decent cross leading to a goal was the volley arnie did against saints thought he was gonna be good at least it was only 6-7m spent on him

No brains, no heart. Get rid!

Should play him as a left winger.

What do we think?
As can be seen in these responses from West Ham supporters, most believe that Masuaku should be sold by the club while others think that he should be tried at left-wing.
While some fans slated his defensive abilities, though, he has made the fourth-most tackles for West Ham per Premier League match on average this season (2.6) and made the joint-sixth-most blocks per game (0.3) (per WhoScored).
