6 vines that prove West Ham's Dimitri Payet is a footballing genius

Cheeky chappy Dimitri Payet was at it again last night.

Jinking his way through Liverpool’s defence and providing an assist to help send West Ham through to the FA Cup’s last 16, the Frenchman just gets better and better.

After leaving defender James Collins for dead, he makes attacking midfielder Victor Moses tackle himself, before running to goal, throwing a few cheeky dummies in for good measure and tucking it away in the bottom corner with ease.

To show just why he might be the best in the English game right now, here are some of his highlights.
