"Basic football I don't think we're doing well enough" - Jarrod Bowen

West Ham skipper Jarrod Bowen was candid in his assessment of their performance, claiming that the team as a whole needs deep soul-searching into what they have been doing. Bowen said, as quoted by Sky Sports:

"When things are going well it's easy to get individual awards but when things aren't going so well you have to point the finger at every single person. It's not [just] defenders defending well enough, midfielders and strikers not pressing as well as we know we can… it's a whole. We all have to look at ourselves and take responsibility for where we are right now. Basic football I don't think we're doing well enough."

West Ham will next lock horns against Wolves on August 27 at Molineux Stadium.
