West Ham captain Mark Noble says he has already been impressed by deadline day signing Jarred Bowen in training, as per the club’s official website.

The Hammers need some inspiration from somewhere to get themselves away from the relegation dogfight and will be hopeful that Bowen can help provide it.

Noble said: “Jarrod has been training and he looks really good. I am hoping he will bring goals, enthusiasm, energy and hunger, coming from the Championship. Jarrod’s goalscoring record at Hull was second-to-none and that’s why we’ve bought him. We’ve bought him to try and help us out at that end of the pitch.

“But even in training, I could see that he gets after the ball as well, and I love seeing that. It doesn’t happen anywhere near as much as it used to, apart from at the top teams, so you don’t get accustomed to seeing it any longer so, when I saw him doing it, I thought ‘Yes! He wants it!’ and it was nice to see.”

TBR’s View – Bowen could be exactly what West Ham need

West Ham need goals to fire them out of their current mess and this season’s top scorer, Sebastien Haller, has just six to his name so far.

Moyes needs someone to chip in and Bowen with 17 goals to his name already this term – albeit in the Championship – could well be the man to do that.

West Ham fans always want to see energy and passion from their side and from what Noble is saying, it looks like Bowen has come in ready to provide that.
