Confirmed West Ham team vs Charlton: Jack Wilshere misses out, Sebastien Haller starts

David Moyes has, as expected, made wholesale changes to his West Ham starting eleven to face Chartlon Athletic in the second round of the Carabao Cup at London Stadium.

Only Issa Diop survives from the 2-0 defeat against Newcastle in the Premier League at the weekend as the manager makes ten changes from that opening weekend defeat in Stratford.

The French defender is in dire need of finding some form after struggling for the past 12 months.

Darren Randolph starts in goal, replacing regular number one Lukasz Fabianski between the stick and the defence in front of him looks very different from the one that started against the Toon.

Ben Johnson replaces Ryan Fredericks at right back and Fabian Balbuena comes in for Angelo Ogbonna, who is rested. Arthur Masuaku gets a chance at left back at the expense of Aaron Cresswell.

In midfield, Josh Cullen starts against the club where he spent two very successful seasons on loan and he is joined in the middle of the park by Robert Snodgrass, who makes his first start since February.

Jack Wilshere doesn’t get a chance as his future hangs in the balance. The midfielder doesn't even make the squad with writing on the wall for his Hammers future.

Manuel Lanzini, Felipe Anderson and Andriy Yarmolenko make up the front three with Seabstien Haller replacing Michail Antonio as the main striker.

The bench is made up of a number of Hammers under-23 stars, with

West Ham: Randolph; Johnson, Diop, Balbuena, Masuaku; Cullen, Snodgrass; Lanzini, Anderson, Yarmolenko; Haller.

Subs: Martin, Ashby, Coventry, Alese, Fornals, Bowen, Silva.
