West Ham United midfielder Andy Owen believes the team's victory over Fulham was a reward for all the players, with every player playing a key role.
Andy Owen came on as a substitute in the 72nd minute, his seventh Premier League appearance this season, and successfully defeated the opponent with a score of 3-2. Andy Owen said: "I am very happy to return to the home court and feel the enthusiasm of the fans. This is a huge victory for the team."
"It was a team effort. I think our opponent Fulham was a very strong team, but we still controlled the game. At the end of the game, we needed to unite more and make sure we got the three points. In addition, I think the fans also played an important role, so it was a really good game."
"I think we have that quality in the team. Football games can be bad sometimes, but we still need to keep calm and continue playing. It's important to remember that unity and fighting spirit on the pitch are not always so beautiful, but I think maintaining this unity will take us far."
In Graham Potter's first week in office, he repeatedly spoke of his desire to use the entire squad in the team and to reassure those players who were on the fringes that they would have opportunities to play for the team in the future.
Andy Owen said: "We have had a good first week with the manager, it has been great. I think this has been a difficult period for everyone at the club, but I think the manager has helped us a lot, the new staff have been clear and everything has been good."
