West Bromwich Albion v West Ham United:

Tony Pulis invited Slaven Bilic's mis-firing West Ham to The Hawthrons as they looked to build on their promising start to the season. West Ham had only won one of their 4 fixtures heading into the meeting. Two mistakes from new signing Artur Masuaku early on, gave West Brom the perfect opportunity to take the lead after the French man gave away a needless penalty. Former Spurs forward Nacer Chadli stepped up to conver form the spot and finished tidily on his home debut. At the other end, Argentine winger Manuel Lanzini seen his curling effort fly just past the post while inform midfielder Michail Antonio forced a stop from former Manchester United keeper Ben Foster.Another defensive lapse, this time from Italian Angelo Ogbonna allowed West Brom to double their advantage when goal scorer Nacer Chadli picked out Venezuelan striker Salomon Rondon and the former Zenit man fired across Adrian and home for 2-0. Things were going from bad to worse for Slaven Bilic's side when Chadli's attempt was turned home by Republic of Ireland Niger James McClean to give Tony Pulis a 3-0 advantage heading into the break. West Ham had no answer to Rondon'ls and Chadli's partnership when a counter attacking move from Rondon sent West Brom on their way to a fourth as he unselfishly laid off to Chadli to pick up his second of the evening. Dimitri Payet gave West Ham their best chance at a way back into the game when his free kick clipped the underside off Foster's goal but somehow stayed out. West Ham finally found a consolation when Payet's clever delivery found Michail Antonio who grabbed his 5th goal in the Premier League. Payet  was involved again moments later as he won a penalty for 'The Hammers' and Manuel Lanzini converted from the spot to make it 4-2. West Ham searched for a late goal rush as James Collins produced a stop from Ben Foster.
