West Ham eased to victory over Fulham in a friendly in Austria on Wednesday night thanks to first-half strikes from Manuel Lanzini and Ashley Fletcher.

Slaven Bilic selected a starting XI for both halves in Graz, though there was no place for Joe Hart, who joined the club on a season-long loan this week.

But the Manchester City goalkeeper watched on from the sidelines as his team-mates continued their unbeaten start to pre-season.
