Manchester City starting XI worth 300 million pounds, the most expensive ever in the EPL, were put to sword by Nigeria’s Victor Moses, whose sixth minute goal inspired West Ham to win at the Ittihad on Saturday.

Moses opening goal was the first conceded by City this season and it led to the millionaire club suffering their first loss of the campaign. West Ham have also felled Arsenal and Liverpool away from home this season and they are now second on the table with 12 points from six matches. Moses was later replaced after an hour at City. Moses' compatriot, 18-year-old Kelechi Iheanacho was introduced by City six minutes from time but he could not reproduce his recent match-winning heroics at Crystal Palace.
