The Hammers finally secure their second victory of the season through the definition of ‘Nuno-ball’.

Bowen belter of a strike clashed the post early doors and just a mere 26 seconds after, Newcastle would strike their only goal of the game, which primarily can be blamed upon Max Kilman by his wondrous adventures at the right-wing and hopes continued to worsen after Robert Jones dismissed our initially given penalty…one of his many fascinating calls this afternoon.

West Ham: Areola, Wan-Bissaka, Diouf, Kilman, Todibo, Potts, Fernandes, Paqueta, Bowen (C), Summerville, Wilson
Subs: Hermansen, Walker-Peters, Igor, Guilherme, Rodriguez, Mayers, Magassa, Soucek, Irving

Newcastle: Pope, Krafth , Thiaw, Burn, Botman, Tonali, Joelinton, Guimaraes (C), Gordon, Murphy, Woltemade
Subs: Ramsdale, Hall, Schar, Barnes, Osula, Elanga, Willock, Ramsey, Miley

Over this past week, it seems that the Hammers have decided to ruthlessly go through the youth players, offering contracts to those who deserve them and ignoring the ones who don’t.

It’s convenient how under Graham Potter, all were firm believers that he would involve the youth academy, and though it weren’t no golden generation but treasure was there to be found. However, after his Aston Villa opener, it quickly became apparent that his principles and values of utilising the youth went out of the window as quickly as he was booted out of the door at Rush Green.
