Mohammed Kudus gave credit to David Moyes after the West Ham manager's tactical change resulted in a 2-0 victory over Manchester United.

Moyes switched Kudus to the left of his front three, put Jarrod Bowen on the right and fielded Lucas Paqueta as a false nine during the second half, with the Brazilian teeing up his attacking team-mates for both goals at the London Stadium. 

And Kudus, who netted after Bowen had opened the scoring, said the rotation was the key to a victory that saw the Hammers leapfrog United in the Premier League table. 

The in-form attacker, 23, told TNT Sports: "Me, Jarrod and Lucas have the flexibility to play in different positions.

"When we switch it makes us less predictable. I think it was a good change from the coach and it worked.

"I'm very happy for that.

"Lucas' vision and his ability means when he gets the ball I just need to run and I know he'll find me. I admire that a lot from him."

Kudus has now scored six league goals since joining West Ham from Ajax in the summer, quickly establishing himself as a fans' favourite.

And he paid tribute to the West Ham faithful after the game before explaining why he sits on the advertising hoardings in what has become a trademark goal celebration in recent weeks.

Kudus said: "This was a very, very good team. We've been really disciplined [agaist them] and I'm really happy for us to win.

"They [the fans] are going to have an amazing Christmas to enjoy and this is a gift from us to them. 

"The celebration does not mean anything. I'm just sitting down to take a deep breath — I'm tired!"
