The victory was made even sweeter with the impressive debut of new wing-back El Hadji Malick Diouf.

Potter praised Diouf's performance, saying that he "did well" and "brought a lot to the team" with his attacking style and crossing abilities.

Diouf's enthusiasm and energy on the field were also notable, according to Potter, who added that the player's positive signs were encouraging, especially considering he had only joined the team a few days prior.

The goals from Andy Irving, Callum Marshall, and Lucas Paquetá were key contributors to West Ham's win, and Potter emphasized the importance of winning in preseason friendlies.

He also mentioned that the team had a good foundation to build upon, and that they needed to continue pushing forward, gaining more minutes for the players, and then heading to the States for their next trip.

Potter expressed his excitement for the upcoming trip, calling it a "really good" opportunity for the team to grow and improve.
