West Ham vs Man Utd : Official Match Thread : 19/09/2021 2pm

And this isn’t an easy game.

I’m more annoyed when we’re making Wolves and Southampton look like top six sides.

West Ham have been one of the better teams of the last year and it’s never a stroll for anyone here. They’ve defended well and attacked in numbers on the break…. Which is all the more reason to keep it tight and cut out the errors.

Soon as we went a goal down though, we sped up and started breaking through easily. Got the equaliser and back to mogadon

He had a dribble in the first half, running with his body totally upright, and looked sublime. Genuinely thoght it was Ronnie. Buzzing around off the ball, too.
Hope he get the goal his performance deserves.

Yep. It’s a big problem.

Our players are swarmed all the time. We have to work miracles to get half a yard of space.

We just let players run 20 yards, or take a touch and get a shot off on the edge of the box. All too easy and all too frequent.

I expect us to dominate this half for the most part and we should win if we take our chances, but an error or sloppiness without the ball could easily decide it.

He’s linked up brilliantly with Ron

The thumbs up he gave him when he created that chance

Think we’ve played well - Shaw and awb both playing well and I think mctom has been decent enough.

A few moments where we’ve switched off + they’ve scored a deflected goal = people have the pitchforks out

Making himself undroppable the lad.

Standard. People are £#%&!ing idiots.

= Ole desperate to sub him ASAP this half.

not bad from us but should be winning.

Thinking Ronaldo would struggle in this league really is immensely stupid.

He could have had a hat trick this half. Two other shots on target, a bad touch that stopped him setting up Greenwood. He’ll probably bag this half. He’ll be around a goal a game rate by the end of the season.

Studio saying we can’t rely on him too much, but Greenwood, Bruno, Greenwood, Shaw and Pogba have all been a threat,

Pitchforks

Just expect more than a decent 10 minute spell only after going a goal down, especially considering the attacking threat we have out there.

I’m still confident we’ll start the second half well and win comfortably.

Good half. All over them but need to maintain the same intensity we had after they scored. So may options up front. Greenwood improving every game.

Big miss

How's he missed that

You’d have put your house on him there.

£#%&!ing Fabianski

Would have put my house on that going in.

How shit is fred
