West Ham player ratings vs Silkeborg: Nayef Aguerd enjoys debut as Manuel Lanzini stakes his claim

West Ham were not at their best but confirmed top spot in their Europa League group with a 1-0 win over Silkeborg.

Manuel Lanzini scored the only goal from the penalty spot at London Stadium.

Here’s how David Moyes’ side rated at the London Stadium...

Alphonse Areola 7

Made a fine save to deny Tengstedt having held a watching brief for most of the first hour, then made smart block at feet of

Vladimir Coufal 6

Lovely clipped cross set up Benrahma chance to double lead. Booked.

Ben Johnson 6

Some aggressive, front-foot defending snuffed out the occasional Silkeborg before they really got going.

Nayef Aguerd 7

A long-awaited debut for the £28million summer signing and he will not have an easier 76 minutes in his Hammers career. Did showcase a decent range of passing.

Angelo Ogbonna 6

Captain for the night and, like his centre-back partners, was hardly worked.

Emerson 6

Slightly more defensive work to do than Coufal on the opposite flank. Solid enough without posing much attacking threat.

Conor Coventry 7

Only his second start of the campaign but looked assured. The kind of midfield player West Ham seem to have little trouble producing. Booked.

Manuel Lanzini 7

Seems heavily out of favour this season but put in a decent showing here and dispatched penalty in style.
