"We haven't been good enough this season, but we are coming into the business end of it now, and we've got a big game coming up on Saturday [against Manchester City]. We are into the quarter-finals of the FA Cup and things are on the up for us. We have to keep doing it, keep demanding it and keep raising the level."
"Bowen now has nine goals in all competitions against Brentford (seven for West Ham, two for Hull City) - three more than he has scored against any other opponent in his career. Since Brentford became a Premier League side in 2021-22, no player has more goals in all competitions against the Bees than Bowen (seven, level with Phil Foden and Mohamed Salah)."
West Ham secured their first FA Cup quarter-final appearance since 2015-16 by overcoming Brentford in a penalty shootout at London Stadium. The match ended 2-2 after 120 minutes, with Jarrod Bowen and Igor Thiago each scoring twice. Brentford's Dango Ouattara's penalty was saved by Alphonse Areola, allowing Konstantinos Mavropanos to score the decisive spot-kick. Bowen, who has nine career goals against Brentford, deflected personal praise and focused on West Ham's need to improve. The club faces Manchester City on Saturday while sitting one point from Premier League safety. West Ham will face Leeds United in the quarter-finals after Leeds defeated Norwich City 3-0.
