West Ham returned to winning ways in emphatic style with a resounding 4-1 victory against Watford at Vicarage Road.
Having not won in five matches across all competitions, the Hammers needed to show their teeth once again as the race for European spots starts to gather pace.
David Moyes’ men fell behind early on when Emmanuel Dennis scored before Tomas Soucek, Said Benrahma, Mark Noble and Nikola Vlasic hit back for the Irons.
However, it was energetic forward Jarrod Bowen who received glowing praise on social media for his performance after the final whistle.

We’ve been in poor form so that’s a huge win
It’s worth noting besides Rice only one player has been fantastic throughout and that’s Jarrod Bowen

READ WEST HAM VERDICT
Death, taxes and Bowen shining.
Previously an inevitably workmanlike performance would be the only guarantee, slowly but surely the former Hull City man producing top-quality displays is becoming commonplace.
Already touted by Liverpool in recent months, West Ham may face a challenge to hold onto their £31.5milion valued rising star.
