West Ham secured a dominant 3-0 win at FCSB on Thursday night with Ollie Scarles and Pablo Fornals among a band of impressive performers.
A number of young stars were handed rare outings in Romania for the Europa Conference League dead rubber with Divin Mubama leading the line and almost capping his debut with a goal.
Here’s how David Moyes‘ side rated in Romania...
Alphonse Areola - 6
Back in his cup keeper role after a rare League outing at Old Trafford and was hardly worked.
Angelo Ogbonna - 7
Another night with a cigar on for the Italian, who has marshalled changing casts so well throughout this group stage. Almost got himself on the scoresheet.
Nayef Aguerd - 7
Saw a deflected header just about cleared off the line. Booked (for pretty much nothing).
Ben Johnson - 6
Cracking burst almost teed up chance for Mubama, then ball from deep made Fornals opener.
Vladimir Coufal - 6
Got away with sloppy early touch but made Mubama’s goal with a fine cross.
Just look at what it means 🤩

It's a dream debut for Divin Mubama, who scores to put West Ham in complete control.#UECL pic.twitter.com/rnm65yhfU4
Conor Coventry - 6
Impressed with his industry against Silkeborg last week but had rather less to do here as West Ham dominated.
Manuel Lanzini - 6
Went close with one dipping effort before the break.
Ollie Scarles - 8
The most impressive of the debutants, the 16-year-old’s delivery from the left was excellent all evening and eventually created Fornals’ second. Booked.
Flynn Downes - 8
Looked desperate to open his account but can be extremely satisfied with another fine display in Europe. Great bit of work in build-up to Mubama goal.
Pablo Fornals - 8
Marked his 150th Hammers appearance with his first European goal for the club. Brilliantly taken, too, and then added another for good measure.
Divin Mubama - 7
Denied a dream debut goal from Scarles cross by a fine save, then by Uefa pen-pushers as deflected header was ruled an own-goal. Booked.
