West Ham shock new-look London City

West Ham's head coach Nuno Espirito Santo believes the atmosphere at the London Stadium is a significant advantage for his team after their 6-0 victory over Wrexham. The match, watched by a crowd of 59,712 fans, saw West Ham return to the top of the Championship table. Nuno emphasized that the stadium is a strength for the players to take advantage of, with 60,000 fans providing great support.

He reiterated that the focus should be on internal realization and maintaining momentum, rather than sending messages. The coach acknowledged that the stadium atmosphere has been a topic of scrutiny due to the difference in distance between the pitch and the stands compared to their previous ground, Upton Park. Nevertheless, Nuno is optimistic about the stadium becoming a fortress for the team.

He also highlighted the importance of the victory for morale, as it follows West Ham's relegation from the Premier League the previous season. The front two, Joel Piroe and Taty Castellanos, along with forwards Jarrod Bowen, Manor Solomon, and Mohamadou Kante, all contributed to the win. Nuno expressed satisfaction with the manner of the victory, praising the positive energy generated by the team's performance.
