Victor Moses has become a fixture in the side since Antonio Conte switched to the 3-4-3 and his performance against West Ham was another example of why Conte puts his trust in him. The 26-year-old had spent just last season loan with the Hammers but was ruthless in his disposal of them.

Combining well with Pedro on the right, he was quick to take on his opponents and chase down any ball.

However, he was at his best on Monday whilst defending. He won a header against Carroll that gave him a bloody nose and blocked a Sofiane Feghouli shot that looked destined to go in for a goal. Even with Snodgrass as a constant thorn in his side, he played one of his best games of recent times and was rewarded with an early night as he was substituted with 15 minutes left to play.
