I love this team' - Declan Rice reaffirms commitment to West HamWest Ham's perfect start continues in Europa LeagueIn the last window alone, West Ham brought in four international players, coming to the club because they've seen how well everything is going.
But with a raft of games coming up over the next month, this was not the perfect start to life without Angelo Ogbonna, whose season-ending injury will no doubt be addressed in the January window after the Czech businessman Daniel Kretinsky completed his purchase of a 27 per cent stake in the club this week.
Eric Bailly - 6Like his defensive team-mate, almost had nothing to lose given his reputation under Solskjaer, and after losing Hudson-Odoi in the opening minutes raised his level to form a relatively solid defensive partnership alongside Lindelof.
It finally paid off when Lavery smashed home a rebound in the 55th minute after Hamilton had seen his initial shot saved.

Gone are the teasing social media messages and scenes of elation that greeted 'O Fenomeno' back to Cruzeiro just before the festive period; like a vintage car fanatic who has finally purchased his dream Ferrari roadster, only to find he must rip out and replace the gearbox, carburettor and cylinder heads, and patch up all four tyres before it is fit to drive, Ronaldo's optimism has quickly been overcome by a sense of the daunting workload ahead.
To stop the rot of nine consecutive years of Celtic winning the league and being dominant, but also to do it in a fashion where they've blown everyone away, is incredible.
