Three Happy Hammers

|

After the game there were some interesting comments by our Supremo , Jarrod Bowen and Kurt Zouma.

talked to Sky Sports and claimed that it had been a really good victory at Kenilworth Road and that he hadn’t been disappointed in anything the team had done.

He added that Luton had not disappointed the Hammers with their attitude or indeed their supporters as they kept us under pressure.

He added: “ I’m beginning to say ‘my goodness, maybe we can step on and do much better’ … the players are playing really well .

I’m sure the win in Europe gave us positive thoughts . I’ve got to praise the new boys who have added something … it’s a really good club and more importantly a great dressing room it’s a great team spirit amongst them.”

Jarrod Bowen meanwhile created a piece of history by becoming the first player to score in each of West Ham’s first three away games in a top-flight season since Vic Watson did it in 1930.

That’s an amazing achievement from the player who was again in great form and claimed his headed goal via a wonderful lofted ball to the far post by man of the match Lucas Paqueta.

He said: “I didn’t score many away from home last year! I saw [the stat] on my [Instagram] explore page, and thought, ‘What’s this about me?!’ So I had seen it, and managed to do it tonight. I’m obviously very happy.”

He then added that he’s going to celebrate by taking his twins to the zoo tomorrow !.

Captain Kurt Zouma gave an interview as well saying: “It’s a great feeling. We knew they were going to put pressure on us and we had to stay calm.

I’m glad I scored the second goal and did it for the team as they made it tough for us. We  had a very solid match and are happy with the three points.

Before Bournemouth away, the manager came to me and said I was going to be captain for a few games [broad smile and giggle] and I didn’t lose yet! So I’m very happy.

But the most important thing is that I try to lead the team as best I can. We have started very well but it’s a long and tough season. We are very happy.”
