He scored two great goals against Arsenal at Highbury in the quarter finals. He repeated his magic in the semi finals as he struck another double against Ipswich to secure the Hammers with a final tie against Fulham. Once again Alan Taylor stepped in and scored two more goals, which in turn won West Ham the FA Cup final. He helped the Hammers reach the final of the European Cup winner’s cup the following season, only being beaten against Anderlecht.
