Alexa, cue Eminem.

A certain Emiliano Buendia is back in Aston Villa's matchday squad, he must be on cloud nine.

Buendia missed the whole of last season due to a serious knee injury and has not featured since May 2023.

Bowen: 'I want to go down in Hammers history'

Jarrod Bowen, on becoming West Ham captain:

There are some big names who have played for and captained this club and have gone down in history, like Bobby Moore, Billy Bonds, and Mark Noble, so to follow them is something I want to do and the same route I want to go down.
