As an Italian, the best thing tonight will be seeing Kenilworth Road in the Premier League. Wonderful small stadium, amazing atmosphere, this is the old English football many people love.

Great work from Carlton Morris and Elijah Adebayo to hound a corner for Luton. That front two are integral to the way the Hatters set up, especially at home.

Would not be at all surprised to see West Ham follow up impressive victories over Chelsea and Brighton with an underwhelming defeat at Luton.

Stay on your feet! A loose ball falls to Jarrod Bowen, he drives into the area but Luton defend well, Mads Andersen forming a wall and blocking him out for a corner.

Yes please. Such a narrow window of the season to see one too Emma. In a night game, anyway. Lovely stuff. Up there with the first night game of the season where you don't need the floodlights on for kick-off. Reeks of the run-in.

Watching a sunset over a football ground is pure magic! It's like poetry in motion.

File that left foot under 'cultured' - could even be a wand. Ryan Giles whips in a delicous cross which Hammers keeper Alphonse Areola comes for and gets all wrong. Butter fingers, he's lucky not to drop that to a man in orange.
Ross Barkley then turns inside the area and fires wide. Good chance! The only man not to work for easyjet to swap Nice for Luton, I'd expect.

West Ham have their first sniff of goal, Mads Andersen can only head up and not away and Said Benrahma hooks a shot wide from a tight angle.

West Ham play out of the Luton press really nicely with new man Edson Alvarez showing a bit of class on the turn. The men in white just starting to get a grip in midfield and the home fans respond with encouragement aplenty.

Show me a manager in the 92 who doesn't still want a striker, even now, and I'll show you a picture of Pep Guardiola and Pep Guardiola alone.
Easier said than done.

Generally a great window for us Hammers, but our failure to bring in any of the dozens of strikers we've been linked with could really hold us back.

BBC Radio 5 Live commentatorIt's an electric atmosphere and Luton have risen to the occasion.
It is a really high-pressure start here from Rob Edwards' side.

James Ward-Prowse from quarterback, looking to spread the play but he gets too much on that one. West Ham haven't got a grip of this one yet.

What a beauty. Up there with Whatsapp image of the season in these early days. Well, one I can publish anyway.
Luton have started well. Could do with a settler of a chance. Ross Barkley's free-kick is a gem but West Ham defend it well.

Good from Tahith Chong again, gliding past a challenge and finding Ryan Giles, his early cross is a tester and Elijah Adebayo wins the header. He actually had more time than he realised and heads it behind an orange shirt. He could have taken that on...

Penny for Watford fans' thoughts tonight? Great to see Luton in the Premier League and football karma served for Rob Edwards with them now behind their rivals.

That's very much not confirmed but a lovely bit of deadline day nonsense. We approve.
Luton are up and at 'em in these early stages with Tahith Chong looking to pick up the pieces.

Just seen Jonjo Shelvey at the hot dog stand in Kenilworth Road! Here we go confirmed.
