Fuck me 100 goals at Anfield is a poor excuse to spend half the studio time talking about Salah.

Didn't see any of it but he is incredible. Now joint 5th all time top scorer at the club as well. He can probably end up second if he stays a few more years

Shame about Henderson trying to sing along

I was waiting for the anthem to start and then I saw Henserson singing it lol

[Honey Honey]

I think if you re-ran this first half you'd come out with 10 different scorelines. On another day we could be going in at half time infront or behind more.

The goal is the result of Longstaff being out. Our midfield does not defend properly without him.

We need to keep our composure. Too many scuffles going on. 

I wonder what Martin Keown thinks about all the dark arts coming from Arsenal. Does make me laugh. People like him have been mouthing off all season about our 'dark arts' and doing us down. Now his precious Arsenal have stooped to that level, even as early as 5 minutes in they were time wasting, what's his view? In my opinion we only get called out for our gamesmanship over others because the big boys have yet to mentally process that we can be challenging now. Once they process that they'll be less frustrated about it all. 

My prediction is this game will end either 3-0 to Arsenal or 2-1 to us.

What a brilliant game to watch!!

Sometimes you have to give credit where its due ... Arteta and Eddie Howe are doing fantastic jobs.

Should both be in contention for manager of the year IMO.

[MUFC]

West Ham XI: Fabianski, Cresswell, Aguerd, Kehrer, Ogbonna, Soucek, Rice, Benrahma, Paqueta, Bowen, Antonio.

 

Subs: Areola, Anang, Johnson, Fornals, Lanzini, Downes, Cornet, Ings, Emerson.

 

Manchester United make three changes from the defeat at Brighton with Tyrell Malacia, Christian Eriksen and Wout Weghorst coming in for Anthony Martial, Fred and Diogo Dalot. Alejandro Garnacho is also fit to return to the bench after an ankle problem.

 

Man Utd XI: De Gea, Malacia, Shaw, Lindelof, Wan-Bissaka, Casemiro, Eriksen, Antony, Fernandes, Rashford, Weghorst.

 

Subs: Butland, Maguire, Martial, Sabitzer, Fred, Dalot, Sancho, Willians, Garnacho

[Bluebird Hewitt]

Everton legend Anthony Gordon comes on for Newcastle. Arsenal might as well give up now. He's getting a hat trick.

[Honey Honey]

Fine margins went Arsenal's way.

We need a holding midfielder. Can't defend when Longstaff is out.

Thought Botman and Bruno had off days. Botman a little out of form lately.

A DM is priority in the Summer and build from there.

Getting results like this after those 6 points dropped in those 3 matches we should've won is going to make it even more painful when we narrowly miss out on the title.

Yeah I thought that after the game. Even if you'd beat West Ham and Saints and just got the point at Anfield (I thought you were lucky to hang on at the end to that), you'd still be 3pts clear with City a game in hand.

Shame but at least you've shown good character after that dismal City defeat. The fact you haven't fell away and are showing fight incase you get another chance shows you got a bit more about you now.

[Rick]

DeGea and co really do provide great entertainment at times. Wtf was that? 

[Bluebird Hewitt]

De Gea channelling his inner Allsop there. 

1-0 West Ham

[Rick]

Sorry, but am I seeing things? Doesn’t Lindelof move his arm towards the ball?! 

[OrangeKhrush]

For the most the game was pretty evenly contested but Arsenal have more game changers that were able to make a few big moments count.   We can still get a lot better and that will come with better players over time. 

[Rick]

Please West Ham, hold this.

I think we may scrape in due to the fact we're playing at home. Liverpool will look at Chelsea winning as a sign they may find some form and also Fulham who are hard to beat.

Mate.. ifbwe make top four it will be the biggest piss take ever lol

[OrangeKhrush]

man United have 3 home games which will help

[Honey Honey]

Think more likely Liverpool catch us 

[Danny]

Honestly if Liverpool and Brighton made top 4 that’d be hilarious

[Rick]

Realistically, we’re hoping Chelsea can put in a half decent performance for once and steal a win. Wolves have been an awkward one for Utd the last few years so maybe they get a draw or maybe Fulham try and get some revenge from the fa cup. Clutching at straws a bit I know. 
 

Newcastle still have Brighton, Chelsea, Leicester and Leeds to play. If you ask me if they win all four I say no. Leeds and Leicester fighting for their lives, Brighton going for Europe….who knows. 

Brighton have a lot of games to play, but some of them are hard on paper. Brighton can beat anybody in this league though, so I would be lying if I said I wasn’t very worried about them. 

Then you have us. The run we are on would suggest we beat all three. But again, two of them are fighting to stay up and the other is Villa. Being at home to Villa gives me confidence, especially after their wobble in the last couple of games. Really need to put Leicester away Monday. Then I will have a bit of confidence going into the last two. 

The ideal scenario would be both us and Brighton getting 3rd & 4th. I think I would die of laughter. At the very least, it’s going to be an interesting run in.

the positive I take is that we played well against arsenal and fine margins didn't go our way.  Man United are playing badly
