Is Jarrod Bowen going to be a pivotal player if the Hammers are to beat the drop?Yes, he will be absolutely keyNo, it'll be down to teamwork |
The goal against the Saints was his first goal for the East London club and the Englishman’s 18th of the season, having bagged 17 for Hull City (per Transfermarkt).
After bagging a goal in the clash which saw David Moyes’ side pick up three points (per BBC), Bowen was awarded a 9/10 performance rating (as per Football.london), which left fans keen to wax lyrical.

What do we think?
With the goal coming in Bowen’s first start for the Irons, the 23-year-old may have proved that Moyes was wrong to leave the attacker on the bench in his first two appearances for West Ham (per Transfermarkt).
Having arrived for a fee of £22 million on transfer deadline day (per The Guardian), hopefully, the Englishman can continue to pay back the outlay it took to seal his arrival from the Tigers.
