Jack Grealish and Ollie Watkins respond to Jarrod Bowen’s devastated West Ham message
Jarrod Bowen had a dedicated message for the West Ham supporters despite their loss on the final home game of the season.
West Ham’s disappointing run of form continued as they suffered a 2-1 defeat to Nottingham Forest in their last outing at the London Stadium this season.
Goals from Morgan Gibbs-White and Nikola Milenkovic gave the visitors control, and although Bowen sparked hopes of a late comeback with a goal, it wasn’t enough to rescue the result for Graham Potter’s side.
Frustration spilled over in the stands, with several West Ham fans voicing criticism towards Mohamed Kudus following what many felt was a lacklustre display.
Despite the result, Bowen shared a message with the supporters, showing his determination and appreciation as the curtain closed on another campaign at home.

Jarrod Bowen unlikely to push for West Ham exit despite difficult season
The West Ham skipper posted a message laced with disappointment but full of determination, writing: “Not the result we wanted, not the season we wanted. But you fans have stuck by us every step of the way and that is the beauty of playing for this club! One more to go to finish on a high.”
His message received plenty of support, with likes from Manchester City’s Jack Grealish, teammate Lucas Paqueta, and Aston Villa striker Ollie Watkins.
The 28-year-old has once again proven his value this season, registering 13 goals and nine assists across all competitions in 3,058 minutes of action.
Despite the club’s struggles in the league, the Bowen is not expected to push for a move away from West Ham this summer, as he continues to lead the side on the pitch.
West Ham plot Aaron Ramsdale move ahead of summer rebuild
With the season drawing to a close, the club’s hierarchy are beginning to shape their plans for the summer transfer window.
Football Insider revealed that Graham Potter is keen to bring in Aaron Ramsdale to bolster his goalkeeping options.
Lukasz Fabianski is set to leave West Ham at the end of the season, leaving a spot that will need to be filled.
Alphonso Areola has also had a shaky season and after Ramsdale got relegated with Southampton, a relegation clause has alerted the Irons for a possible move.
