Former Stoke City forward and now pundit at BBC sports Garth Crooks, believes Andre Ayew made a statement in Swansea’s 4-1 demolition of West Ham last week.

Ayew, who rejoined Swansea City in January after clinching his move from the Hammers on transfer deadline day, was handed his first start and he made a massive impact by teeing up three goals in the convincing victory.

First, he set up Ki Sung-Yueng for the opener before his headed effort was kept out by Adrian and tapped home by loanee Andy King.

And he wrapped up a fine performance by earning a penalty, which his brother Jordan converted, after being tripped by Cheikhou Kouyate.

“If you’re going to make a statement to the club that has just sold you then playing your part in the four-goal demolition of your former employers is the way to do it,” said Crooks.

“Andre Ayew and his brother, Jordan, absolutely destroyed West Ham. Their father, the former Marseille and Ghana international, the great Abedi Pele, should be very proud of his boys,” he added.
