    Good half. They created feck all. Sloppy between Ronaldo, Bruno and Elanga, Rashford was very good, same with Casemiro and Shaw.

    Maguire didn't do a whole lot wrong, but you can tell he's so much slower on the ball than Varane or Lindelof.

    Has Rashford always been this good at headers? I don't remember this being a specialty of his but it is now.
    He has got his head on them regularly as of late which seems to be something he has been working on.

    No, he's improved. Clearly never lacked the physicality, but was a mostly always a bit off with his timing - which I believe is the most important aspect of heading from what little I know.,

    Need to keep an eye on Benrahma. Seems to be the only threat that West Ham have.

    A bit sloppy but a decent half from us.

    We are letting them though get the ball too easily to dangerous areas.

    Somewhere in your mind, touching a nerve
    Maguire has not anticipated some of West Ham’s attacks at times. He just scares me with his defensive play. Elanga needs to get more involved because he’s been quite pointless in this half.
    Other than that I thought we have been good

    Scrappy half. Need to see more from Ronaldo and Elanga 2nd half.

    We've been the better side but not a great performance

    Don’t agree, he consistently got drawn in to pressing up the pitch when it simply wasn’t on and vacated the space behind him.

    The only times West Ham had joy were due to this.

    West Ham is ultra defensive... it isnt easy to just pass through that.
    Well we need to find a way, work a situation out wide with overlaps and get crosses into the box for Ronaldo/Rashford or cut backs.

    "I don't trust ourselves to actually create chances so I'm just going to shoot from 25 yards every time I can when there's opposition players stood right in front of me" is an absolutely awful way for a top team to create a game of football.

    These constant long range pot shots and short corners need to stop now, we'll be a better team for it.

    Rashford hasn’t really been known for headers but that was a great one. Hope that’s going to be something he tries more often going forward.

    Shaw is a level above whenever he has competition, we just need to sign a new LB every season to keep him in line.
    and make sure he doesn't live near a mcdonald's! he's so much better when he doesn't resemble a tank!

    Pretty comfortable half. We’ve created a lot of half chances but nothing super amazing. Given the line-up, (Maguire; Ronaldo; Elanga) — we’ll take it

    We've been ok. Maguire makes the team less confident IMO and Elanga was poor. I'd take him off for Sancho.

    Garnacho for Elanga please. We've made nothing down that right hand side.

    I remember a lot of fans wanting rashford sold at beginning of the season and I always argued that players with potential should be given a chance under a better tactical manager. Ten Hag is working wonders with him so far.
