Mohammed Kudus scored twice and Lucas Paqueta registered three assists as West Ham beat Wolves 3-0 on Sunday.
Here's how David Moyes's side rated at the London Stadium...
Lukasz Fabianski 6
Kept his place in goal despite Alphonse Areola's return to fitness. Good early save from Cunha strike.
Vladimir Coufal 6
Lucky to stay on the pitch after forearm smash on Bellegarde. Eventually booked in the dying minutes for another hefty challenge on the same player.
Kurt Zouma 7
Won the ball and fed Paqueta in lead up to second goal. Assured at the back. Booked.
Nayef Aguerd 6
Important interception after Soucek had misplaced pass. Solid enough.
Emerson 7
The driver of West Ham's bright start with terrific work down the left.
Edson Alvarez 6
Vital block on Toti to deny Wolves a lifeline on the stroke of the break. Taken off with 20 minutes to go and a trip to Anfield in mind.
James Ward-Prowse 7
Brings a little more guile to West Ham's play in a more advanced role. Went mightily close with late free-kick.
Tomas Soucek 6
Fortunate not to be punished when gifting possession away inside his own half.
Mohammed Kudus 9
What a signing. Scored two terrific breakaway goals and ran Wolves ragged all afternoon.
Jarrod Bowen 8
Almost scored from a corner early on, then struck the post with a fine effort. Terrific low finish took his tally in the league into double figures.
Lucas Paqueta 8
A superb hat-trick of assists, all with passes that were made to look simple but were perfectly executed.
