Archie Woods was thrilled to make his U23 debut for West Ham in their defeat to Wolves last week.

Woods – a second-year scholar - is determined it won't be a one-off.

“It's been really good to make my debut," Woods told whufc.com. “It's been a long time coming – I'd been on the bench a couple of times – so it's a really good feeling to get out there eventually!

“Making tackles is a big part of my game, and it was a big part of the game out there today too. I feel like there were a few tasty tackles out there to get involved with!

“We're disappointed with the final score after the boys had some good results earlier in the season, but it's just one we've got move on from and and go again against Leeds next week."
