West Ham 3-1 Manchester United: 5 Hits and Flops

#1 Hit: Felipe Anderson

Anderson celebrates his opener in a game where he showcased precisely why he's the club's record signing

Anderson, who has displayed brief flashes of his individual quality since sealing a £35m move (plus add-ons) this summer, has finally asserted himself over a full 90 minutes.

The creative hub orchestrating West Ham's attacking moves, he created a joint game-high three key passes, was fouled thrice too and proved a nuisance throughout - whether he was in the final third, or embracing his defensive responsibilities.

A game-high seven completed tackles, only United defender Chris Smalling (5) came close in comparison, while his deft flick beyond de Gea was executed to devastating effect. He could've had an assist too, had Arnautovic pounced slightly earlier from a teasing ball into the box. Encouraging performance, which will leave Hammers fans wanting more.
