West Ham chairman David Gold has jumped to the defence of Andre Ayew following recent criticism over his performance.
Ayew, who joined the Hammers from Swansea City £20million, has struggled to establish himself.
The Ghana international suffered a long-term muscle injury on his debut which appears to have affected his form.
Replying on his personal Twitter account, co-owner Gold disagreed with a Hamers fan that criticised former Marseille striker Ayew, but Gold failed to stick up for Jonathan Calleri.
