West Ham U21 coach Haycock hails goalscorer Wellington

West Ham United U21 coach Nick Haycock was delighted with Wellington Paulista in victory over Arsenal.

The Brazilian striker struck in the 2-0 win.

"He's a good lad first and foremost. I've picked that up in training. He wants to do extra, he wants to work, he wants to get fit, he's hungry. I thought he showed that in his performance today. You sometimes get players who are used to playing at a higher level in their own minds, and they come down to this level and don't put the performance in, but I couldn't question Wellington," Haycock told whufc.com.
