West Ham’s Nottingham Forest loss highlights transfer problem as Jarrod Bowen awaits re-ignition

West Ham United remain without a point or a goal in their Premier League campaign following their 1-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest on Sunday.

The Hammers are one of only three sides to have played two games in England’s top-flight this term and are yet to pick up a point from either, with Taiwo Awoniyi's goal on the stroke of half-time enough to separate the two sides at the City Ground.

In an entertaining clash for the neutral, the Hammers thought they had opened the scoring towards the end of the first half when Said Benrahma's slotted from close range after being played through on goal by Declan Rice. However, VAR disallowed the goal after Michail Antonio fouled Orel Mangala in the build-up what would have been the Hammers' first goal of the season.
