Everton winger Yannick Bolasie has claimed that West Ham’s former ground – Upton Park -is the best stadium he has played at.
During a Q/A session with the fans on Twitter, Bolasie answered this question. While many Crystal Palace fans felt Bolasie would say, Selhurst Park, the answer brought out a lot of reactions from the Hammers fans.
Upton Park was indeed the spiritual home for the Hammers and it used to generate a great atmosphere. However, West Ham have now shifted to the London Stadium since 2016.
The new stadium generates a better revenue due to more seating capacity. Plus, it is a multi-purpose outdoor stadium as well. However, many West Ham fans connect the soul of the club with the Boleyn Ground.
Now you’ve upset me, Yannick
