West Ham had struggled to attack this season, but for an expert, there is a suggestion that it could be self-inflicted by head coach Graham Potter, who made a rather bold call during the disappointing match of Saturday 1-1 at home with Southampton already noted.
In recent years, West Ham has struggled to recruit a prolific attacker. Niclas Fullkrug was signed in Borussia Dortmund last summer, but he has considerably underperformed since his arrival, and this has often led Jarrod Bowen and Mohamed Kudus playing more central.
Evan Ferguson was signed on loan from Brighton in January as a possible solution to the problem, but it is clear now that it is not considered that of Potter.
Evan Ferguson of Graham Potter causes confusion on Sky Sports
About West ham areaMichael Dawson, Sky Sports expert was disconcerted by Potter’s decision not to bring Ferguson for Fullkurg, who was rather replaced by midfielder Tomas Soucek.
“Niclas Fullkrug came out, and one might think that Evan Ferguson would be caused – just as a right exchange. No.
It was a difficult season for Ferguson. He had a hard time entering Brighton’s team during the first half of the campaign, which caused the move to West Ham during the winter. But it turned out to be just as unsuccessful.
Ferguson will surely return to Brighton at the end of the season, how interesting it will be to see what is going on with him – it could be Leeds United, which was linked to the signature. He had been considered one of the best hopes of attackers in the Premier League as recently as the 2023-24 campaign, but this title is certainly not the one he can hold at the moment, but the time is on his side.
