The Hammers have been caught up in yet another massive, controversial headline, as news broke yesterday about Edson Alvarez.

Given the situation, it explains his absence from the first team and why any move away over the summer always collapsed.

The Mexican captain has been caught in an off-field drama, allegedly being involved in a kidnapping along with a few others from his close circle, with a suspicion his father in law could be involved.

West Ham United have secured their third victory in the space of just seven days with a thrilling 3-2 victory over Bolton, a side the Hammers haven’t beaten away from home since 1995! And don’t you worry, there’ll be plenty more of these ‘records’ as the season goes on.

Jarrod Bowen converted early on to give us the lead but only momentarily until an unlucky deflection off Mavropanos went in and Kyle Walker-Peters rather clumsily clipped the Bolton man, after which they converted a penalty.
