Alejandro Garnacho double sees Manchester United trounce woeful West Ham

Manchester United thrashed West Ham United 3-0 in the Premier League to continue their fine form in front of goal in recent weeks.

Rasmus Hojlund celebrated his 21st birthday in style as the summer signing's fine opener and a brace from fellow young gun Alejandro Garnacho fired Manchester United to an impressive win.

Fresh from 18-year-old Kobbie Mainoo?s stoppage-time stunner settling Thursday's chaotic contest at Wolves, the Red Devils? talented young talents came to the fore once more.

Summer signing Hojlund rifled United ahead with his fourth Premier League goal in as many games, with 19-year-old Garnacho then seeing an effort deflect in off Nayef Aguerd before firing home United?s third against David Moyes? Hammers.

The goalscorers and Thursday's matchwinner Mainoo mimicked West Ham forward Mohammed Kudus' celebration after Garnacho's first goal, sitting together on the advertising hoardings.

It provided a fantastic image of three young talents that offer hope for a bright future at United, whose season has been bumpy for the most part but is starting to show signs of improvement.

The only negative for Erik Ten Hag's side was the injury that saw a grimacing Lisandro Martinez replaced with 20 minutes remaining.
