Callum Wilson 8, Jeff Hendrick 8; Mark Noble 5: West Ham v Newcastle player ratings

Debutants on target for Magpies as they beat lacklustre Hammers 2-0 at London Stadium

• 

  WEST HAM RATINGS: Lukasz Fabianski - 6: Will be disappointed that Wilson got to ball first for Newcastle's opening goal. Good reaction save from Fernandez header in first half Reuters

• 

  Ryan Fredericks - 7: Some good crosses from the right but had his hands full trying to deal with Saint-Maximin. Booked for foul on French attacker. Reuters

• 

  Issa Diop - 6: A tough night trying to deal with both Carroll and Wilson but stuck to his task. AFP

• 

  Angelo Ogbonna - 6: Like his defensive partner Diop, struggled against Newcastle's lively attack. Unlucky to see first-half header hit top of bar with Darlow beaten. Was left for dead by pacy Newcastle substitute Almiron near the end. Reuters

• 

  Aaron Cresswell - 6: Did ok down the left for West Ham but should have done better closing down Hendrick before the Newcastle midfielder fired home the second. Getty

• 

  Tomas Soucek - 6: Can be so dangerous in the air. One first-half header just wide from Fredericks cross. Getty

• 

  Declan Rice - 6: One brilliant ball down the right for Fredericks in first half but his passing radar wasn't its usual accurate self at times. AFP

• 

  Mark Noble - 5: Spotlight was on the midfielder after criticising the club over the sale of Grady Diangana. Game pretty much passed him by and he was substituted midway through the second half. Getty

• 

  Pablo Fornals - 6: Should have done better when his shot hit the bar via a slight deflection. Little influence on proceedings. Hooked after 67 minutes. Getty

• 

  Jarrod Bowen - 5: More involved as first-half went on and West Ham got more in the game but the team needed more from one of their key attacking players. Reuters

• 

  Michail Antonio - 6: Often an isolated figure up front. Good chance in first half which he could only drill weakly at Darlow. Reuters

• 

  SUBS: Andriy Yarmolenko (On for Noble 67') 7: Had a couple of chances after coming on - one deflected wide and one saved by Darlow. Reuters

• 

  Sebastien Haller - (On for Fornals 67') 5: No impact after coming on. Getty

• 

  Felipe Anderson - (On for Bowen 89') NA. Getty

• 

  NEWCASTLE RATINGS: Karl Darlow – 7: First Premier League start for two-and-a-half years in place of injured Dubravka. No chance with two chances that hit the bar in first half, decent stop from substitute Yarmolenko in second. Shutterstock

• 

  Javier Manquillo - 7: Spanish right-back was solid throughout and his deflected cross helped supply Wilson's opener. Getty

• 

  Jamaal Lascelles - 7: Lost possession once in first half that allowed Antonio chance to shoot on goal but otherwise impeccable from Newcastle's big captain. Reuters

• 

  Federico Fernandez - 7: Dealt well with everything West Ham through at him - which wasn't much. First-half header forced reflex save from Fabianksi AP

• 

  Jamal Lewis - 7: Left-back signed from Norwich linked up well with Wilson in first half, setting up two chances for his fellow new boy. Getty

• 

  Isaac Hayden - 7: Early booking didn't faze the midfielder who was a rock in the centre of the park. Getty

• 

  Jeff Hendrick - 8: A debut to remember from the former Burnley man. His header set up Wilson's goal, then produced wonderful finish into the roof of the net to make it 2-0. Reuters

• 

  Jonjo Shelvey - 7: Usual range of quality passing and dangerous crosses from the midfielder. Reuters

• 

  Allan Saint-Maximin - 7: Straight back in the attacking groove for Newcastle. Always dangerous but will have a few bumps and bruises as West Ham looked to bring him down before he hit full flow. PA

• 

  Callum Wilson - 8: Good debut for the striker signed from Bournemouth. Went close three times in first half before finding the net with poacher's finish after break. Willing runner who caused West Ham problems all night. Getty

• 

  Andy Carroll - 8: Could easily have been booked after 10 seconds for flying elbow on Soucek. But the big striker justified manager Bruce's faith with a tireless performance. Lovely bit of skill in first half to bring down ball and see his shot deflected wide. A massive help in his own box from crosses as well. Getty

• 

  SUBS: Joelinton - (On for Saint-Maximin 75') 6: Did alright when he came on but the Brazilian could struggle for regular starts this season. Getty

• 

  Sean Longstaff - (On for Carroll 88') NA. PA

• 

  Migel Almiron - (On for Wilson 85') NA: Good cameo from Paraguayan as he set up Henrick's goal and could have scored one himself. AFP

Callum Wilson scored a debut goal to keep up his hot streak against West Ham and help fire Newcastle to a 2-0 win.

The striker, signed last week for £20 million (Dh94m) from Bournemouth, grabbed his eighth goal in nine appearances against the Hammers before another Toon debutant, Jeff Hendrick, wrapped up a deserved victory.

It was another miserable start to a season for West Ham who have now lost their last five opening-day matches – a Premier League record.

And with a horrendous run of fixtures to come they could already be in serious trouble by the end of October.

Wilson scored a poacher's goal to open the scoring after a deflected cross from Javier Manquillo was headed on by Hendrick. The former Burnley man sealed victory when he fired a shot into the roof of the net with three minutes left.

"I like this place, I like playing against West Ham," said Wilson. "It is not a disrespectful thing but I keep scoring against them. It is about being consistent and building on this performance for the next game."

While Pablo Fornals and Angelo Ogbonna both hit the crossbar for West Ham, too often their attacks lacked the cutting edge to trouble Newcastle.

West Ham manager David Moyes said: "Didn't enjoy the performance, didn't enjoy the game. Those are my thoughts.

"We did not show enough quality and I don't think it was officiated well but that is not the reason we lost."
