Is this a good temporary signing for Graham Potter's side?

West Ham have secured the loan signing of Brighton striker Evan Ferguson for the remainder of the season.

Check out some of his best moments for Brighton.

The 20-year-old Republic of Ireland forward will be reunited with Graham Potter, the manager who handed him his senior debut at Brighton back in 2021.

Ferguson has struggled for game time this season, making just 15 appearances—11 of which have come from the bench. He has also spent recent weeks sidelined with an ankle injury but made his return on Saturday, coming on in the 73rd minute during Brighton’s humiliating 7-0 defeat at Nottingham Forest.

His only goal this season—and his first since November 2023—came in a 2-2 draw with Wolves back in October.

West Ham are in need of attacking reinforcements, with Jarrod Bowen, Niclas Füllkrug, and Michail Antonio all currently sidelined through injury.

Ferguson will be hoping to rediscover the form he showed in the 2022-23 season under Potter, when he scored six Premier League goals and earned a nomination for the PFA Young Player of the Year award.

Frankie told us: "From a Brighton supporter, you have one support player there. I just hope he gets a good run of games to get his mojo back. He probably suits West Ham's style more than ours at the moment."

Paul, a West Ham fan, added: "A good signing. I just hope the fans don’t expect a superstar. He’s young enough to keep improving, but please give him time."

Brentford 2 - 2 Manchester City Manchester City’s bid for a fifth consecutive Premier League title took another hit as they squandered a 2-0 lead to draw against Brentford. Author - Macca The Bees looked down and out after trailing by two goals with just 12 minutes left, but Yoane Wissa sparked a dramatic comeback with a strike before captain Christian Nørgaard’s 92nd-minute header salvaged a point in a thrilling finale. Brentford nearly snatched all three points in the dying moments, but Nathan Aké came to City’s rescue, heading Bryan Mbeumo’s curling effort off the line in the 95th minute. City had taken the lead in the 66th minute, with Phil Foden expertly guiding a side-footed volley from Kevin De Bruyne’s sublime cross. Brentford almost levelled five minutes later, only for Aké to clear Wissa’s attempt, set up by Mbeumo’s impressive work around goalkeeper Stefan Ortega, off the line.

Have Everton started their road to recovery?

Everton 3 - 2 Tottenham Hotspur Everton began their road to recovery under returning manager David Moyes with an impressive victory at Goodison Park, piling further pressure on Tottenham's under-fire boss, Ange Postecoglou. Author - Sarah W  Spurs were disjointed and vulnerable for large parts of the game, as a revitalised Everton side – who had only managed three Premier League wins and 15 goals all season before this match – dominated proceedings. The Toffees raced to a well-deserved 3-0 lead by half-time and, despite a late Tottenham fightback, the final scoreline flattered the visitors, failing to capture the gulf in performance between the two teams. With both sides desperate for points, Everton swept Spurs aside in a blistering first half, laying the foundation for a crucial victory that condemned Postecoglou's side to their seventh defeat in 10 league matches. Dominic Calvert-Lewin broke a 1,288-minute Premier League goal drought dating back to September, skillfully ...

Manchester United 1 - 3 Brighton & Hove Albion Manchester United fell to their sixth home defeat of the season at the hands of Brighton & Hove Albion. Author - Liam C Yankuba Minteh scored first for the visitors early in the match, but a penalty from Bruno Fernandes midway through the first half seemed to provide the foundation United needed to secure all three points. However, a chaotic second half saw Kaoru Mitoma tap home at the back post, before a mistake from Andre Onana gifted Georginio Rutter a third in an eventful 3-1 victory. It was hardly the way United's players would have wanted to mark the death of their iconic and legendary striker Denis Law . However, they deserved nothing more. This was another dreadful display in what is becoming a very bad season for the twenty times champions of England.  A closer look at what happened This was far from the kind of result or performance that would have honoured the great Denis Law.   The brilliance and flair ...
