[J-Stander]

Rashford the game changer, fair play to him. Not arsed about the decisions as we've had more than enough go against us recently. A proper grind that but we're doing all we can do.

 

[kps88]

Got lucky with the red card and offside goal. Makes up for when they got lucky at OT.

 

[rpitchfo]

Such an important 3 points. Good to rashford running at defenders again.

Other than that we were terrible and got handed the game by the ref.

 

[Ivor Ballokov]

Good win and even sweeter because we got the rub of the green against those feckers and their fecking horrible fans.

 

[12OunceEpilogue]

Great win. Uninspiring football for the most part from a knackered bunch of players, then good substitutions change the game for us. We also benefitted from dire officiating, Mike Dean needs to be demoted after that horror show.

 

[freddie the red]

Thank you Rashford and Dean!

Sounds like some sort of ice dancing duo!!

 

[Inigo Montoya]

Poor performance from Lingard but for me Mike Dean was MOTM

Jones wasn't far behind with his nervy defending

 

[Cutch]

Very tired looking performance. Really struggled to break West Ham down. Needed someone to run at players and an injection of pace and it was Rashford that was the difference

 

[royboy16]

Happy to beat that shower under some poor decisions by the ref.

Should have punished them with the extra man but I guess the players were a bit tired from saturday. Its 3 points in the right direction.

Jose's subs were spot on again.

 

[harms]

Good result in a hard week. Don't think that it was a red but I felt that West Ham only got better after the sending off.
Obligatory offside goal

Rashford changed the game but De Gea is my MotM, incredible again.

Jose went with an unorthodox formation second time in a row and it paid off, love it.

 

[dannyrhinos89]

that was a very Chelsea-esqe mourinho type win.

Didn't play well but Another fairly comfortable 3 points in the bag so can't complain.

 

[Munkehboi]

Boring but professional. West Ham parked the bus in the first half after the sending off which seemed to throw us off our game completely. Rashford changed the game though, well played lad. Another clean sheet, mostly thanks to DDG and 2 points gained on Liverpoo and hopefully Spurs.

 

[Kostur]

Shite performance but I don't mind, those need to happen. Very happy with 3 points, very lucky (this time) with Dean being fecking inept.

 

[DevilRed]

Great win on the road against a bloody tough opponent.

The red was a correct decision from Mike Dean. Good to see us finally get some decisions our way. It all evens out.

Not the best performance but understandable as it was away from home and we had just played 2 days ago. Some of the players like Ibra, Pogba and Herrera need a break. Hopefully they will be rested for the cup tie.

Solid defending today from Jones and Rojo. De Gea with a gamewinning save.

Such an important 3 points despite playing poorly. We are on an undefeated streak that hasnt been matched since the days of Fergie. Let that sink in!

 

[TsuWave]

Good that we are able to win even when its ugly. The team is understandably tired because this holiday period is crazy.

Mourinho was very astute today with his subs. Rashford changed it for us and Mata is incredibly productive and decisive. The Smalling sub was the right one as we were playing with Carrick at CB when we were chasing the goal but that wasn't viable for the remainder of the game, especially because west ham had already broken through a few times. De Gea with crucial saves. Good stuff.

We made it through with maximum points and made up some ground. Happy days.

 

[Raven Blade]

Mike Dean spoiled that game for everyone except us. We'll gladly take it though after all those games where nothing went our way earlier in the season. We were due some good fortune.

This could have been a banana skin for us today until Rashford gave us some inspiration. Keep the winning run going.

 

[TheNewEra]

Championship winning performance, held in there, positive changes made.

I think Mourinho is starting to find his best XI and I do think in a different season without the bad luck at the start United would be up there with Chelsea.

 

[Ban]

Scrappy but I'll take it. We cant play nice all the timw but its important to win this kind of ugly games. Some bad ref decisions in our favour tbh.

 

[Inigo Montoya]

Sounds like some sort of ice dancing duo!!

Absolute Bolero!

 

[Schmiznurf]

A win is a win and it's great I do think we would have won without the sending off though.

 

[Jazz]

Man Utd are now 13 games unbeaten in all comps; their longest run since March 2013 under Sir Alex Ferguson (18 games).

 

[FC Ronaldo]

Most enjoyable win of the season.

Injustuce everywhere.
Terrible ref.
Awful linesman.
Playing vs 10 men.
We weren't great.
Counter goal after a clear chance missed.
Finished off with an offside goal.

All featured as we beat that scummy club. I hope the misery they faced tonight continues through 2017.

 

[worcesterred]

Delighted with the win of course but that was a very dull performance. So slow at times.

 

[Inigo Montoya]

Championship winning performance, held in there, positive changes made.

I think Mourinho is starting to find his best XI and I do think in a different season without the back luck at the start United would be up there with Chelsea.

I hope not

 

[The Man Himself]

Nice win. The subs changed the game again. Inspired substitutions by Jose.

 

[AR87]

They looked exhausted and I doubt we get the 3 points if the match was played at even strength. That being said we got some fresh legs on in the 2nd half and it's no surprise Rashford and Mata combined to create the goal. Rest up and get ready for Reading.

 

[Oneunited26]

We played with 2 weak links in both games, fellaini vs boro, lingard vs west ham, frustrating we are still 6th. It shows we have some very good weapons to bring on to change a game, has showed here, and none of without zlaten BS we be in trouble

 

[Chorley1974]

Sounds like some sort of ice dancing duo!!

Jane Torville & Rashford Dean, beautiful.

 

[waza7111]

Credit to West Ham who defended brilliantly with 10 men but the substitutions made the difference. If Valencia had scored the open goal it would probably have been an easier game.

 

[December_16]

Well they are the talking points...if it was the other way around...well it's not hard to imagine.

For sure. Problem is, if history is anything to go by, we're gonna get fecked by the refs for the next 10 games because Dean made those controversial calls in our favor this time. Not saying there's any conspiracy against us or things of that nature, but overcompensation is a thing and it's annoying.

 

[Inigo Montoya]

Most enjoyable win of the season.

So very satisfying then

 

[AndyJ1985]

We won but I don't think we played particularly well. In fact I think we were very poor for large parts of that match, even though we had a man advantage. Rashford changed the match for us.

But playing 2 games in 3 days means you just want any win no matter how scrappy. Once the team is rested we should see the football improve again.

6 wins a row and we've got ourselves right back in the mix for top 4.

 

[Devil may care]

Ugly game, ugly atmosphere and tired players across both teams, under those circumstances all I care about is those crucial 3 points.

 

[clarkydaz]

what a depressingly shit stadium to play football in. Go back to the bowling ground, or whatever you decided to rename it. Couldn't happen to a more deserving bunch

 

[OnlyTwoDaSilvas]

During Xmas fixture congestion, a win is a win. Especially away. Naff performance and a fairly awful spectacle but I don't care. 6 on the bounce. Mostly very good performances. Solid.

 

[Red_toad]

Tired performance. Is that 6 league wins on the bounce now? Nice to see Rashers getting back some form.

Match day thread absolutely terrible today, no different to when we were desperate for a win, I do wonder what joy some fans get out of football.

 

[RedDevil@84]

So when does Mike Dean get his P45?

 

[Triple.Threat]

Get in!!

professional performance, much needed at a tough away game.

 

[Ban]

Dire, for the most part, and very lucky with the refereeing. But nobody will care about that at the end of the season.

Most importantly, we've got yet another win. Would be great if the fecking teams above us would start dropping some points.

Scousers did today.

 

[Sp00ks11]

Brilliant by Mourinho today, bringing Mata and Rashford on was spot on! Still makes me laugh how many people were desperate for us to get rid of Mata just because he doesn't defend well, he is a little maestro not a defender and he scores alot of valuable goals from midfield!

Thought Herrera looked tierd today but the team almost picks itself now. Where does Rooney play when he is back?
