The quality of West Ham's new signings can be seen from the international break. Scamacca almost scored with a header for Italy against England and Emerson made a late cameo; Kehrer played at right-back for Germany against England at Wembley; Areola had a rare outing for France and Paquetta played twice for Brazil. While established Hammer Declan Rice also had a solid match for England.
It's been forgotten that Scamacca had a nasty virus for a fortnight, but with Antonio also on duty with Jamaica it's surely time to give him a start. There's a fair piece by Jacob Steinberg in the Guardian today, pointing out that the Hammers have been unlucky in terms of hitting the woodwork and being robbed by VAR. But even so, having spent £150 million, Moyes needs to get Paqueta going quickly and also give new signing Cornet a game. And let's see some proactive substitutions before we go behind. Come on you Irons!
