“In three games, I played four different positions, which is an additional feature, but it is also very difficult.” Sky Sports.

Hammers New Hammers coach explained that he may have to obtain “creativity” due to the injuries to the front, and Kudus, who has experience in driving the line with the former club AJAX and West Ham, was used as a central striker in the defeat 2-0 Crystal Palace in Last week.

West Ham was also very public in their attempt to employ a new striker in this window, as opponents by Aston Villa opponents on Sunday for striker JHON Duran.

However, while the 24 -year -old admits that he still has a lot to learn as a striker, but he is a ready role to embrace him and the challenge he enjoys.

“I need to be stronger,” said Kodos about the challenges of playing as a front.

“I am playing against the great and strong central defenders. I must be strong to protect the ball. It is clear that it is greater than me, but I certainly can do work there for the team.

I must know more movements and know how I can help the team better.

Kudus and the Premier League – a match made in heaven?

West Hamm Mohamed Kodos striker:

“The Premier League is a very intense league.

“There is a lot of running and you need strength. You also need to be technical, and I think I have all these features.

“It was a bullish season and a decline in the entire team, but we are responsible for individual offers or also, but focus on the team and improvement.

“Players to adapt after changing the manager”

Kudus has become a major figure in West Ham since his transfer of 38 million pounds from AJAX in the summer of 2023.

He arrived in East London last season, where he scored 14 goals in all competitions, as West Ham won first place in the league and reached the quarter -finals in the European League.

Kudus did not reach the same heights this season, as it scored only three times in the league of the hammers. West Ham did not reach the same highlands this season, which led to Julien Lopetegoy’s rejection after only 20 games in the league.

Potter is the new man at the head of West Ham, and while Kudus insists that changing the manager has faced his challenges, he believes that he and his teammates should escalate to restore their season to the right track.

He said: “It was difficult [changing managers].

“There is a tactical element because each manager has a way of thinking. There is a specific manager who expects you, then the manager B expects another way.

“The speed of the speed of changing this in your head and how quickly adapting to a new way of playing, this is difficult. But as professionals, this is our job.

“We cannot control those who bring the club as a manager, but we can control our efforts, energy and passion.

“Who is the manager, who can change, but you can always run a lot, track, pay and fight. This part of the game always remains the same regardless of who is the manager.

“But the tactical part of the game and the way to play, has an effect. As a group of players, we have to change quickly and adapt to the way the new coach wants to play.”

The victory over Fulham in the league was between the FA Cup defeat against Aston Villa and the disappointing defeat at the end of last week at home to Crystal Palace, where Potter quickly pushed the event.

Only three games left for a few weeks for the new coach to get his methods to the players in the training field, but Kudus has seen the power raised between the West Ham since Potter’s arrival.

“He is demanding a lot,” Codos said.

“It was only here a short period of time, but we can feel energy as players.

“For me, it was the same with the old manager, and they expect a lot, and the difficult part is to repeat what I want to do in his system. I know that we have no time, but these things take time. Fans expect points immediately and we have to get victories, but Stability in a new way to play takes time. “
