3 assists in 6 games! The 20-year-old star shines in the Premier League, and the transfer fee is only 22 million euros

It can be said that Nuno's task at West Ham United is quite difficult. Before he took office, the Hammers looked like a real relegation candidate, losing four games in the first five Premier League rounds. Fortunately, the Portuguese coach caught up with the "new coach's honeymoon". In the first game, he led the team to chase two goals and grab a point, and his performance was qualitatively improved compared with the previous games. As expected, Bowen scored again - as long as the British winger fired, the team had great hope of climbing out of the relegation zone.

However, in addition to Bowen, there are several players in the West Ham team that are worthy of Nuno's focus, and one of them is even expected to reach the "world-class" height like Bowen. In January 2020, West Ham spent about £20 million to sign the then-known but full of potential winger Bowen from Hull City. When he first arrived in London, his adaptation period was dull: he only scored 1 goal and assisted 4 times in 13 appearances in the season. However, the next season, the 28-year-old experienced an explosion: he contributed 8 goals and 6 assists in 2644 minutes in 40 games.

In the next two seasons, Bowen has completely evolved into one of England's top attackers: directly participated in 31 goals in the 2021/22 season, and was selected for the England national team; a year later, in the European League final, he won the 90th minute in Prague, helping the team win the first European trophy in the team's history, which will be recorded in history forever. Since then, Bowen has been West Ham's most threatening offensive weapon; under Nuno, he will still be the key to the team's points grab.

But now, with the former Nottingham Forest coach taking over, another new star of the Hammer Gang is expected to be carved into "world-class". The new coach often benefits a group of players, and this time, the most noteworthy name is: Dioff. The former Slavia Prague Flying Wing joined the team for a transfer fee of 22 million euros this summer, but it has amazed everyone. Sky Sports' Joe Tomlinson even called him "one of the biggest discoveries of the season." After joining the team, Dioff scored 3 assists in 6 league rounds, second only to Gallish (4 times), ranking second in the Premier League assists list. And this is just the tip of the iceberg - in the game against Everton, he almost made another assist with at least two high-quality crosses, one of which was the source of Bowen's goal. The Senegal international is like a supercar on the left side and has been hailed by an analyst as "one of the best full-backs in the league." Why can Nuno's tactics allow him to evolve again? There are two main reasons:

1. During the Wolves, Nuno used to use five defenders, and the wingbacks traveled back and forth at high speed and sent the ball to the frontcourt as soon as possible.

2. Even if he plays four defenders in the Forest, he still asks the full-back to pull up his width, put on his body crazy, and keep crossing.

If this idea is continued, Dioff's data on assists, manufacturing opportunities and other data are expected to explode - after all, in the dull system of his predecessor Porter, he is already the team's most offensive explosive point.

Authentic, it will take some time to get this full-back, who is called "explosive" by analysts to reach Bowen's height, but with his current flash performance and Nuno's tactical support, he has every potential to become the next legend to be the gods at the London Stadium.
