West Ham 2-0 Norwich
by Paul Donovan at the London Stadium

THE chorus of voices demanding an England call for West Ham's Jarrod Bowen grew ever louder with this latest barn storming performance, to secure victory over Norwich at the London Stadium on Wednesday evening. 

The player with most goals and assists in the Premierships this season saw his side home with two goals, though it could easily have been five. 

In the first minute of the game, Manuel Lanzini threaded a through ball to Bowen in the penalty area but Norwich stopper Tim Krul saved with his legs.
