John Hartson has sent a classy message to West Ham star Jarrod Bowen as record chance emerges in the clash with Wolves.
When West Ham welcome Wolves to the London Stadium today there’s a potential record brewing.
But it may not be one many Hammers fans know about.
Jarrod Bowen has been in fantastic goalscoring form for West Ham this season.
Bowen has picked up where he left off in the unforgettable European final in Prague.
After signing a seven-year deal Bowen should – with all being well – go on to become West Ham’s all-time Premier League record goalscorer.
He set a new Hammers record of scoring in seven consecutive away games at Spurs.
And as West Ham welcome Wolverhampton Wanderers to east London another little piece of Hammers history is up for grabs with a big slice on the horizon.
Someone who knows all about scoring goals for the Hammers is John Hartson.
He netted 15 in the 1997/1998 Premier League campaign. And it has only ever been eclipsed once – by Paolo Di Canio with 16.
Now Hartson has sent a classy message to West Ham star Bowen as a record chance emerges.
Bowen has scored nine goals in 15 Premier League appearances for West Ham this season.
If he nets against Wolves, he will cement his place as the second-quickest Hammers player ever to 10 Premier League goals in a season, after that man Hartson.
And the former Hammers favourite has sent Bowen a message that’s a lovely touch – just like he used to have on the pitch.
“Hope you get the record,” Hartson said alongside a Hammers emoji.
So do we John, so do we!
