Two West Ham stars have been named in a team of the week but not Declan Rice or Said Benrahma after the win over Bournemouth.
West Ham beat Bournemouth 2-0 on Monday night and in doing so jumped seven places from 17th to 10th.
The Hammers are in the top half for the first time this season as a result.
It was no classic, though, as Moyes set up with three defensive midfielders and a turgid, drab affair was played out.
Two West Ham stars named in team of the week but not Declan Rice or Said Benrahma after win over Bournemouth
Two of a handful West Ham players who stood out on the night were Declan Rice and Said Benrahma.
Rolls Royce Rice was in second gear as he controlled the middle of the park all night with yet another near faultless display for the Hammers.
Kurt Zouma gave West Ham a somewhat controversial 1-0 lead on the stroke of half-time.
And on a rare Premier League start, Algerian playmaker Benrahma was a constant menace, probing and prodding the Cherries before putting one on the top of his cake by scoring a penalty to make it 2-0 late on.
Now leading football data experts WhoScored – powered by Opta – has announced the best XI in the Premier League this week.
Two West Ham stars are named in the team of the week but not Rice or Benrahma after the win over Bournemouth.
In fact it is goalscorer Zouma and his defensive partner Aaron Cresswell who have been named in the Premier League team of the week by WhoScored.
They join the likes of Harry Kane, Kevin de Bruyne, James Maddison and Kieran Trippier in the side with Zouma getting a rating of 8.03/10 and Cresswell 7.86/10.
West Ham captain Rice scored 7.5 which was not quite high enough to oust de Bruyne, Maddison, Leon Bailey or Fulham’s Andreas Pereira from midfield.
Benrahma scored 7.8/10 to also narrowly miss out.
Let’s hope we see more West Ham stars in the team of the week after the next round of matches as the Hammers head to Old Trafford to take on Man United this Sunday.
