Manchester United 4-0 West Ham: Five talking points after Romelu Lukaku scored twice

Nemanja Matic 

The Serbian is already the darling of the Old Trafford crowd after a wonderful display.

He bossed the midfield from start to finish.

But United fans and Jose Mourinho will be more impressed with his role in setting up the opening goal.

A penny for the thoughts of Chelsea boss Antonio Conte.

Man Utd 4 - West Ham 0: Five talking points as Lukaku and Matic dismantle poor Hammers

Paul Pogba

Critics believe the arrival of Matic will free up Pogba to truly express himself.

But it was more of last season's Pogba that played against West Ham at times with some careless passing

The Frenchman did grow into the game and his goal at the end capped a fine day for United.

Romelu Lukaku

11 goals in 13 games. Lukaku just loves playing against West Ham.

The Belgian wasn't involved much in open play but presented with two chances, he made no mistake.

Ruthless.

Victor Lindelof

The Swedish summer signing from Benfica has played a prominent role for United during pre-season.

So his absence from the squad was a major surprise even when you consider his shaky displays.

Perhaps Mourinho is attempting to send him a message by the omission.

West Ham woe

Slaven Bilic was already a man under major pressure and his side's defeat will have done little to alleviate that.

West Ham's four big signings all played and failed to really impress.

Bilic will be desperate for a result against Southampton next weekend.
