West Ham striker Sakho thrilled with fans song for him

West Ham United striker Diafra Sakho is delighted with the way he's been welcomed by Hammers fans this season.

Sakho has revealed he had to ask Ricardo Vaz Te what 'he scores when he wants' meant after the song was directed at the Senegal international during his side's win against Manchester City.

"I didn't understand it at the beginning, but I asked Ricardo Vaz Te and he translated it for me," Sakho told West Ham's official website.

"I'm really touched by them saying that all the time. It makes me happy to hear that and gives me even more motivation to score. I'll always try to give them that, if I can."
