    Oh no. Trouble for West Ham. Is Tomas Soucek's game over? He's gone down and is receiving medical treatment. He's able to get to his feet but is sporting a bruise on his face. He's carrying on for now.

    Good play by Luke Shaw who deals with the threat of Mohammed Kudus who is threatening to burst down the flank. That came about after a mistake by Scott McTominay who carelessly gave away possession.

    Emerson wins a corner and suddenly the crowd bursts into life. It's whipped in by James Ward-Prowse but United's defence deal with it. Not much quality on show at the minute.

    At some point in time Man United have to set up to win a game. Its OK setting up in the hope of nicking a goal against the bigger and better teams but when you're up against clubs of similar levels like West Ham then you have to take more of a risk to win a game.

    Paul: Somebody has surely said Roque SANTA Cruz? It’s an open goal…

    Lovely pass by Bruno Fernandes but Rasmus Hojlund cannot control it inside the box.

    No point in sugar-coating this. It's like a Christmas hangover.

    Little attacking threat from the visitors so far.

    The Hammers have had four attempts but only one on target.

    United playing McTominay as a central midfielder yet again. He can't do it, they're going to get overrun in the center.

    Tim, Sutton

    Ian: As a West Ham fan I am between fed up and disgusted with the way some so called fans are treating David Moyes. It makes me ashamed to be associated with them. This is arguably our most sustained success ever. What do they expect?

    A decent chance for Jarrod Bowen after the ball lands nicely for him about 20 yards out but he scuffs it wide.

    This game has yet to spark into life.

    United are starting with three teenagers in In Kobbie Mainoo (18), Willy Kambwala (19), and Alejandro Garnacho (19). They've also got 35-year-old Jonny Evans, who is using all his experience to help the youngsters around him.

    Former Brentford and QPR boss on BBC Radio 5 Live

    Kambwala has had three or four opportunities at driving out. I think West Ham will set traps so he has to be very careful.

    Alverez on Fernandes is going to be a key battle and so is Kudus on Shaw. United are growing into it.

    Today West Ham have got that intensity. Against Liverpool, they didn't have it.

    Lovely run by Alejandro Garnacho who drives into the box but his attempted pass is cut out by Edson Alvarez. Corner to the visitors.

    A deflected cross by Luke Shaw sails in the arms of Alphonse Areola. A comfortable gather for the Hammers keeper.

    Apart from that Onana save, all the action has been in the middle.

    Ten minutes in, United are yet to mount a serious attack.

    Obviously, you are going to big Willy Kambwala up but he is physically imposing at first sight. Quick strong, but very comfortable with the ball at his feet.

    West Ham have allowed him to settle a little bit.

    Not bad!

    West Ham are on the front foot and Emerson creates an opportunity for himself from the edge of the box which Andre Onana does well to get down and save.

    Scrappy start. Both sides have yet to settle. A noise of anticipation from the crowd as the ball is played back to Andre Onana who quickly gets rid.

    Great noise inside London Stadium and an early touch for Willy Kambwala. That will settle a few nerves.
