Nottingham Forest's manager Nuno Espirito Santo struggled to name West Ham's most dangerous players when asked about the threat posed by Graham Potter's side during his pre-match press conference on Thursday.
However you can bet he knows the name of each and every one of them now after witnessing his high-flying Forest be demolished by an accomplished West Ham team that belied the criticisms aired at them during their first three outings of the 2025/26 campaign.
An effective first half performance by the Hammers ensured the hosts fail to create a single effort at goal in the first 45, effectively nullifying Forest's noisy crowd and home advantage. And three goals in the closing stages - from Jarrod Bowen, Lucas Paqueta and summer signing Callum Wilson - saw Potter's boys secure their first three-pointer of the new season at the City Ground, against the odds.
We'll have a full match report for you soon...
