Hammers fans want to see Kemp given chance in the first team

Plenty of West Ham United fans are desperate to see Dan Kemp involved with the first team after his impressive performance against Cheltenham Town.

The 20-year-old winger scored twice in the first half to help send the Under-21s’ into the break with a 3-1 lead before they fell to a 4-3 EFL Trophy defeat.

These West Ham supporters believe it’s time Kemp was given a chance to shine in the first team, even if it’s just featuring off the bench…

Read West Ham’s verdict

Kemp is the latest young star many West Ham fans are desperate to see given a chance in the first team, with Nathan Holland also a favourite on the terraces.

Holland received his chance in the Carabao Cup defeat at Oxford United, so it’s a shame the Hammers aren’t still in a competition that would’ve been perfect to introduce Kemp too.

If he continues to shine for Dmitri Halajko’s Under-23s and 21s though, he’s bound to make his breakthrough sooner rather than later.
