Had to stop watching at 90mins. I just couldn't put myself through anymore of this 2 holding cdm's at home to fecking west ham. Dire beyond belief

2 holding dms not attacking when one scored the winner?

If it was a league game it’s 2 points dropped to be fair

If it was a league game he wouldn't have started the same team.

It's a stupid argument really.

That was so strange and what dick move by Noble. No reaction was very weird, agreed.

Reminded me of the Herrera incident under LVG when Noble carried him off the pitch. Just like then, there was absolutely no reaction from the player or any of his teammates. That's where you want your leaders to stand up for their teammates, particularly with how things are going for Van De Beek at the moment. Where's Keano when you need him?

This really annoys me. Outside of Shaw and Bruno we are the softest footballing team around. Why the hell did we not refuse to take the throw and run over to the referee saying he'd been thrown to the ground taking a throw in? It's the De Gea shove incident all over again. Players accepting getting physically thrown around outside of the rules of the game. We don't complain about it.

Agree. Its baffling how we let things go so easily. Keane is one example, Neville, Rio, Evra, Rooney, Fletcher etc are others who would not stand for this crap in games.

Man Utd 1:0 West Ham - McTominay (98')

Benrahma and McTominay arrarive in the box at the same time. But Benrahma stops his run and watches the ball, while McTominay predicts where the ball will come and therefore continues his run at a slightly slower pace. Class from McTominay.

Its weird somehow; we know we will struggle against a solid defence, that is trained to creating (close together)two banks of four or back 5 +4, either way we find it difficult to get through.
It was not until the 97th minute that our midfield one man rescue act arrives late in the box and catches the opposition flat-footed, (admittedly with a neat, well time and paced assist from Rashford).

Midfielders arriving late has worked a few times before, why the hell did we leave it until the 97th minute???

Hard to tell. But Fred is not a typical goalscorer - actually far from it. Matic might score from time to time, but my impression is that he is more dangerous at set pieces. Donny had one big chance, but nothing besides that.
Overall we did, however, have chances to score earlier: Lindelof, Greenwood, Rashford and Donny all had a big chance each.
