That's an absolute cracker

Great goal by Pogba

Odd Var check when they don't have the proper cameras for it

Edit: and great by Greenwood too

While I'm not writing off a 19 year old, it's madness to hear people compare Greenwood to the likes of Owen and Rooney at the same age, he looks miles off them

Corholio

That's a weird one. The arc of the ball definitely looked like it had gone out and come back in, especially where it landed back just inside the pitch. Moyes was already calling it out well before the goal as well. No way for VAR to tell I guess though.

Shanotheslayer

Some finish by GW as well

This is it

If that's something that they check why not have a camera either end?

Greenwood took that well

PsychoPete

Classic United, play absolutely sh!te for most of the game but some how manage to be in the lead

Moyes was fairly certain that it had gone out of play, but we haven't seen a proper angle.

United have pulled some fortunate wins out of their holes this season. You couldn’t say they have stopped playing for Ole anyway.

SlickRic

This 2nd half is all about Bruno Fernandes.

Stunning player.

What was the check for?

GLaDOS

Fernandes really is a one man team.

West Ham only have themselves to blame - if you don’t take your chances to go 2 or 3 up, you’ll invariably get punished against a top 4 side.

Shanotheslayer

Superb tackle by Rice bad after effect for Rashford unfortunately

Francie Barrett

Some tank job from West Ham here.

Shanotheslayer

Football doesn't make sense.

How is this 1-3 :pac:

This is it

Lovely ball through from Mata, still has those great passes. Good finish too

Literally the only reason OGS is still in a job.

Wuff Wuff

Some touch from Rashford, lovely dink to finish too

Big away win. ManU in the title race now? Must be surely.

PsychoPete

United look absolutely lost without Bruno and it was like a completely different team when he came on. He's keeping Ole in a job

Agent Coulson

Fair play to Ole that was a great substitutions at halftime that changed the game and Pogba scoring a cracker of a goal Man U are in safe hands with the two of them in the top 4 now.

To be fair nothing was happening until Martial got injured and Mata had to come on

Absolutely.

Nobody is particularly consistent yet, so until that happens, about 6 teams are still in it really.

They have a few quality individuals in midfield and up front who can win games irrespective of how poorly they are set up - will be interesting to see how far that can take them in a long season. They haven’t played City or Liverpool yet, so if they can win those games, they’ll be in with a shout.

yourdeadwright

Of someone can put together a run of victories from now till January they'd habe to be the favorites

Huge Christmas period for all the top clubs, with City and Liverpool dropping there standards this season theres a massive opportunity for one of the other big 6 to win it

yourdeadwright

United v City next weekend and Liverpool v Spurs 3 days after,
2 absolutely huge games now

Cavani starts again for Utd!!

What do you think Rasta?

Removed after 45mins. Solid management for once.

Also talking about title races and who is top of the table in December is silly.

Long way to go yet.
