    Commentators on my stream are now complaining about a throw-in that was before the attack that led to the penalty that resulted in a goal. fecking hell. Trying so hard to find some controversy, they tried to claim offside on Rashford's "flick" though I don't even know if he touched it and know this.
    In 1994, United got denied a stonewall penalty against Sheffield Wednesday. A young Graeme Scott was in attendance that day and vowed to never let that happen under his watch, and thus West Ham United have every right to feel hard done by today.

    Poor performance overall, but three vital points. Got to feel sorry for West Ham fans as they were probably the better team overall. We just seemed intent on being unable to do simply things at times, and created problems for ourselves.

    It was good to see Ole look to Mason even when we were chasing the win. Even if he didn't do to much on the pitch today, that faith in a young player has to give them confidence.

    Terrible performance really. We don't press well and we don't attack well as a team. Two penalties saved us this time. Rashford came on and gave us a boost at least. The defense did alright apart from Rojo.

    I am very dissappointed with Pogba though apart from the penalties. Lost the ball so many times it was crazy. Been better than that recently.

    De gea with a brilliant save too! Nice to see after plenty of poor performances and him also giving the ball away before 1-1. Hopefully it gives him some confidence back.

    Oh well. On target with my prediction.

    Did Mason touch the ball?

    I didn't see more than 3 seconds at a time of the last 20 minutes. Awesome streams...not

    You can only do so much when you take over mid-season, make no purchases, retire some dead rubber (Fellaini, Valencia), and promote some youngsters. We’re in a strong top 4 race and are facing off against quality in the Champions league. We were going to have a blip, especially as other teams figure out how to keep quiet Solskjaer’s partially implemented tactics. He’s shown enough for me not to worry.
    Yeh i get that, but next season if he buys players he thinks can do it and they don't we could be in HUGE trouble.

    The TV director was looking for any hint of offside for the second and then wound it back for the throw-in Pogba won before the attack took place.

    That was abysmal. Worse than anything I've seen in last 6 or 7 years. No credit to anyone. Forget about top four or progressing in European cup. We need to replace so many players it could take years, we are so far behind the top teams.

    Lingard with a Ashley Young type performance . Rojo is so bad I missed Young . Martial with his worst performance in a red jersey
    What is going on with him ? We thought it was Jose fecking him up, so much potential but we rarely see it.

    Our squad is so average

    Martial would have fecked that ball at the keeper if the defender hadnt fouled him.

    He had a higher pass completion than Rooney in oneof our biggest PL games in LvG's last season. He's really declined in that aspect but I wonder if it's also the coaching.
    I’m absolutely sure it’s the coaching. Which makes it all the more annoying.

    Never start a match after today with players like Mata, Lingard and Rojo. God we need to spend big this summer ! And sick of hearing about the potential abilities of players like Pogba and Lukaku who turn up about once every 5 games. We desperately need some more hardworking battlers in this side. Rice might be a good start along with Fred and McTominay
    Spot on pal, past a joke now how poor a squad we have

    People seem to forget that West Ham have played superbly against all the top 6 and have been very unlucky. The reverses have been flattering to the the top 6: Liverpool lucky to get a draw, City lucky pen, Chelsea win through Hazards brilliance and on...

    Where they’ve been poor is against sides they’re expected to beat. They are horribly inconsistent.

    Having said that, I don’t care how awful we were, I hate West Ham so I can’t say I care too much,and as for feeling sorry for their vile supporters. FECK OFF!!!

    He has been pretty average so far at united barring couple of good months last season. Lukaku gets more criticized even though he has performed much better than lingard.
    I agree he's average. I disagree that he's a fan favourite

    I really like Slaven Bilic as a pundit, don't really have a clue what he is talking about but the way he makes the person next to him so uncomfortable with his thigh rubs is brilliant.

    Martial is absolutely shocking, we would never make our money back on him or pogba for that matter, in fact excluding homegrown players is there a player we would make a profit on ??? The answer is No , and for a club our size that's frightening!

    Just watch Woodward when the transfer window opens he will be trying to sign players that we have no chance of signing, like Neymars, Messis, Ronaldos. Martial is a great player but he seems to hang his head too early when things do not go for him. As for making a profit? we certainly could on Pogba. We need some good scouts, who does the scouting for Dortmund, or Athletico Madrid, or Juventus? It sure is not Ed Woodward.

    There's only one United!
    United should do everything possible to buy Rice.

    You simply haven't watched enough if you thought that was the worst we have produced in the past 6 years or you just have a short memory but I agree with the rest of your post.

    Goals mate. Motm tend to favor the goalscorer. Nothing new. Not always of course.

    Ole's gamble almost fail.

    At least we survived, with shocking 3 pts at that, even if undeserved.

    Also, the good thing is Ole should clearly know by now which players he can trust and those he can't.

    Let's move on and concentrate Barca, and the following 3 games after that, 2 big games looming after Barca.
    • Barca
    • Everton
    • MCity
    • Chelsea

    We were pedestrian today. The atmosphere in the ground wasn't up to much. Could hear the West Ham fans for most of the game. We got away with it. Mata is finished. Lakaku will be sold, hopefully. Fred was good again. Hope were better than that away at Barca.

    People not rating Rice are clueless.
    Why? He can sit deep in front of a back 4 but he can't create anything. Hes good but not the standard that will help any team win a league or challenge in the champions league.
