'It should not look this bleak this early'
- Published
It should not look this bleak this early but it is hard to pick out the positives for West Ham.
When Jarrod Bowen walked over to applaud the travelling fans at the final whistle it was a show of support.
Yet stewards then appeared to stop Bowen getting any closer to the supporters as the forward became angry, potentially over something said in the crowd.
What started as a show of unity ended in highlighting the Hammers' fractures and it underlined the tension which has already started to boil over after just three games.
Three defeats, 11 goals conceded and just days of the transfer window left.
The Hammers go to Nottingham Forest on Sunday and Graham Potter needs quick results, especially after being undone in the final 10 minutes.
