West Ham United fans expect new manager Graham Potter to bring some style back to their team's football after a dispiriting and brief Julen Lopetegui reign but the new coach was happy to win ugly against Fulham on Tuesday.

A lot of talk this week has been around West Ham's search for a striker after the hamstring injury Niclas Fullkrug suffered in Friday's FA Cup defeat by Aston Villa and the absence of Michail Antonio after his car accident.

David Ornstein joins Cara Banks to detail Graham Potter's appointment at West Ham following Julen Lopetegui's departure from the club.

Graham Potter welcomed his first win at West Ham but admitted the performance was “far from” what he wants to see long-term. The Hammers won their first home match under Potter as they beat Fulham 3-2 at the London Stadium on Tuesday night.

There will be no more bubbles blown for Julen Lopetegui at West Ham, who fired the Spanish coach on Wednesday and announced Graham Potter as his replacement. Potter has signed a two-and-a-half-year contract and was unveiled as the club’s new manager at a press conference on Thursday.

West Ham has hired Graham Potter as the coach a day after Julen Lopetegui was fired. Potter has been out of management since he was fired by Chelsea in 2023 after just seven months in the job at Stamford Bridge.
