Gary Neville raved about West Ham ace Jarrod Bowen when speaking on Sky Sports’ production of our game vs Manchester United last night (Saturday December 5th, 6:02pm).

The Hammers were rampant in the first-half against the Red Devils and in all honesty we should have been out of sight at half-time.

Bowen was West Ham’s best player inside the first 45 minutes.

The 23-year-old terrorised Alex Telles down the Hammers’ right hand flank. He was a constant menace and caused United all sorts of problems.

Gary Neville praised Bowen and labelled the West Ham winger as a real live-wire, when speaking on Sky Sports last night (Saturday December 5th, 6:02pm):

“Bowen has been a real threat when he’s released. He’s gone past Telles like he’s not there. He’s a real live-wire. He pops up everywhere.”

Bowen’s performance levels dipped in the second-half. Moyes actually took him off with 20 minutes ago.

Strange decision from the Scot, but that argument is for another time.

Bowen is now one of West Ham’s most important players. And if he continues to improve he could very well go on to become one of the Premier League’s best players.

The former Hull ace’s display in the first-half against United last night proved that.
