Michael Owen made it 11 goals in 11 starts for Liverpool as they extended their lead at the top of the Premiership to seven points with a 2-0 win against West Ham.

The England striker showed his range of skills when he made the breakthrough after 27 minutes.

But he rode his luck with his second as he mis-hit the ball and it drifted into the net in the 56th minute.

Liverpool remain unbeaten in the league this season. In fact they have only lost once in their last 29 Premiership matches.

That's championship form and the Hammers, despite a brief flurry in the second half, were never really in it.

Without the injured Paolo di Canio, they struggled to break down Liverpool on their own patch.
