Loads of West Ham United fans would like to see Jarrod Bowen included in the starting line-up when they take on Southampton in their next Premier League outing.
The 23-year-old joined the Hammers from Hull City in the January transfer window for around £20 million (BBC Sport).
He had been on fire for the Tigers in the Championship, netting 16 goals in just 29 appearances prior to his move to east London. However, he is yet to be given a start by David Moyes at his new club with his only appearances to date being late cameos against both Manchester City and Liverpool (Transfermarkt).

When he came on at Anfield he almost made an instant impact, getting in behind the Reds defence and attempting to dink the ball into the net only to be denied by a good save from Alisson (BBC Sport).
It seems that some Hammers fans have seen enough of him to think that he should be in the starting line-up, however, with many taking to Twitter to suggest the he needs to be in the 11 when they take on Southampton at the weekend.
Here is what some had to say…
Jarrod Bowen needs to be starting games so he can start gelling with the team and score the goals that we drastically need if we’re gonna have any chance of winning games and stayin up ⚒⚒

Jarrod Bowen was unlucky to break the Liverpool defense only to see Allison fortunately see the chip hit him in the face. Bowen has the pace & football brain to hit teams on the break & win 1 on 1 with keepers. How about Antonio & Bowen & no centre forward?

If @pablofornals, Ngakia and @jarrodbowen_ don’t start on Saturday Moyes and his staff need a serious wake up call.

Only played 10 minutes but Bowen looked really good in that time even having a chance to go level! He has to start the next game

Last night proved why Bowen and Fornals need to start. Both offer so much movement and creativity which we badly need. Pray we can get out of this mess
