West Ham United got off to a fantastic start to life under new manager David Moyes on Wednesday as they hammered AFC Bournemouth 4-0 at the London Stadium.
It was a terrific performance from the Hammers and the three points they gained lifted them up to 16th place in the Premier League table (BBC Sport).

There were several standout performers on the day from a West Ham perspective, but one player who came in for specific praise on social media was their captain, Mark Noble.
The 32-year-old was absolutely terrific in midfield, making two interceptions, two tackles and one clearance as well as playing one key pass and completing one successful dribble (SofaScore).
Added to that he also managed to score two goals, one of which was a penalty after he won a spot kick for his side (SofaScore).
Plenty of West Ham fans were left drooling over Noble’s performance and took to Twitter to heap praise on him. Here is what some had to say…
A great display – well done Mark

When Noble performs as he did tonight against Bournemouth, it highlights the huge shame and injustice that he was never given the England cap he deserved at the end of the Farewell Boleyn season; especially when Jesse Lingard, for example, has been capped 25 times.
