We asked for your thoughts after Saturday's Premier League game between West Ham and Ipswich.

Here are some of your comments:

West Ham fans

James: Signs of what Lopetegui is trying to implement came through today, especially the second half. Todibo has cemented his place as a starter next to Kilman now. Great to have Alvarez back, who was class.

P CBM: That was entertaining and the reason Moyes was let go. AWB good, Kilman and Tobido looking more assured. Bowen and Kudus lively. Paqueta still not at his best and the midfield still not quite functioning smoothly.

Walter: Ipswich were not as bad as this result suggests although the Hammers could/should have had three more goals! It’s clear Antonio is only good for an hour so we will have to accept this. I think Paqueta is a luxury we can’t always afford - losing possession and failed tricks always leave us open. I would rather have Ward-Prowse. Three points. Beat United and we are off!

Ben: We needed a win, and we got that, along with a performance. Not perfect as they had a few decent chances they didn’t take, but four goals should help on the confidence front. Kudus and Paqueta scoring their first for the season also a plus.

Ipswich fans

James: An off day but disappointing all the same, especially after Villa. A harsh lesson in life in the Premier League - you have to cut down unforced errors and take your chances. I remain positive though; we have a pragmatic manager who will learn from this and I don't doubt the commitment of the players. Plus, at least we seem to be capable of scoring.

Adam: First time this season we've looked off the pace and unorganised. Too many defensive mistakes that were punished. Tuanzebe was a big miss for us.

Scott: Hutchinson and Clarke as 10s don't work. Let's go back to Broadhead and Chaplin after the international break. Still think Delap will keep us up. He is a real handful with very little support.

Andrew: You can’t change a team that was Championship standard last season by putting in four new players. Playing style needs to change also. The need to tighten up at the back is painfully obvious, as well as being clinical in front of goal.
