Player to watch: Callum Wilson
Callum Wilson scored his second goal for West Ham before the international break, and he will feel that he can now kick on and become the club's go-to man at the top of the pitch. The former Newcastle striker could even end up being Nuno Espirito Santo's West Ham version of Chris Wood.
