Pablo slammed live on Sky Sports for 'daft' West Ham moment vs Lincoln - 'What on earth?'

Pablo Felipe was one of five different scorers on Wednesday night as West Ham United thrashed Lincoln City 6-0.

The 22-year-old is one of four players Nuno Espirito Santo recalled to the starting line-up at Sincil Bank.

With the goals flying in around him against a Lincoln side down to nine men inside 23 minutes, Pablo got his goal with 15 minutes left.

Konstantinos Mavropanos had earlier opened the scoring just before half-time, with substitute Edvin Austbo taking no time at all in the second period to add the Irons' second.

Jarrod Bowen inevitably got in on the act - that goal going alongside two assists - with Tomas Soucek also coming off the bench to net twice.

Pablo can be happy with his day's work, but pundit Andy Hinchcliffe questioned something he saw from the forward in the first half.

Pablo criticised for challenge on Deji Elerwe

Pablo was not West Ham's best performer in the thumping win at Lincoln, but he more than played his part.

He cut a frustrated figure at times in the first half, though, not least when he went needlessly barging into Lincoln full-back Deji Elerewe 19 minutes in.

Pablo only had his eyes on his opponent as the ball was in the air and he barged right into him.

Referee Andrew Kitchen, who was spot on in sending off Tom Hamer and Conor McGrandles, could easily have reached into his pocket to show the West Ham attacker a yellow.

Speaking on Sky Sports' live coverage of the match, former defender Hinchcliffe said: "Pablo, what on earth?

"It's obvious you're going to give a free-kick away. You're concentrating on the man and not the ball. It's a daft challenge to make."

Will Nuno stick with same XI vs Swansea?

After returning to winning ways after three games without a victory in all competitions, West Ham have a massive game this coming weekend.

A trip to Swansea City in mid-October was not supposed to be a top-of-the-table six-pointer, but it is very much that.

The Welsh side have started the season superbly and lead the way at the summit, four points better off than third-place West Ham.

Nuno rotated his side against Lincoln and you can expect changes to be made at the Liberty Stadium, too, to freshen things up.

Same names are nailed-on starters, while others are surely pushing for inclusion from the off.

Austbo deserves to start, as does two-goal Soucek, while Manor Solomon was arguably United's worst performer on the night at Sincil Bank.

Nuno has some tough calls to make, but it is a headache of a nice kind as West Ham look to rebuild some momentum after this emphatic victory.
