Please don’t ask to see my tatts 👍
I tell you what I like about that, it’s 4-3 to Ipswich and number four runs 40-50 yard to make the keeper pick up the ball.he actually runs past a Charlton player who has lost interest. Number 4 scores the equaliser. Brilliant.

cant play Liverpool every week
about time we finally put a side to bed in a game, and good to see Reiss Nelson amongst the goals, shame it took an injury to Saka for Arteta to give him a shot

What a rubbish game. Each team just wanted to pass to each other
Moment of quality decided it with that header
How on earth did fabainski injure himself heading a ball??
Degea at the end ... What a performance from him

Unfortunately I missed the game, hopefully Maguire had a good game.
Also pleased for Rashford for getting his 100th goal.
I also can't believe that De Gea is probably going to miss the World Cup!

Same old...Same old I'm afraid!
Set up not to lose....go one down then start playing…Same against the Dippers the other week.
Then need to score just to draw....forget about winning!
Sad thing is we can actually live with these teams....Moyes is just too scared to have a proper go at them. Look at his record against the 'big' teams particularly away..... its atrocious at best!!

Whilst his subs improved us I didn't get some of them
When Antonio came in. No you don't take scamacca off at all. Take soucek or Downes off. Push benny into attacking midfield and antonio left wing
Then if you go for it last 15 mins you can go 2 up top... Rather than oh my second striker is back on the bench unusable
Thought scamacca was playing some lovely balls in just needed Antonio to run onto them

Wasn't the Scamacca decision partly due to the fact he'd already been booked and then had that high foot challenge on the Utd defender in the box? One more slightly mistimed challenge from him and you'd almost certainly have been down to 10 and facing a real struggle to try to get back into it.

Possible, I watched with 3 mancs my goodness they were trying to convince it was wreckless
Both players only eye for ball
5ft 9 defender lowers his head
6 ft 5 striker raised foot
Both tried to win ball
With 7 inch difference in height it was only going to end one way
Nothing dangerous about it

I agree. It's a freekick to Utd for the high foot but nothing more than that. Scamacca tried to flick it with the outside of his foot and didn't deliberately go for the defender or raise his studs. The problem for Scamacca, and West Ham, is the response from the other Utd players and putting the idea in the refs head that he's got away with one there. That's not a criticism of Utd as any team would've done the same. I think Moyes had to take him off just in case of one more slightly mistimed challenge.

Yeah he lost his assistant and lost any clue what he was doing.
Ill back any manager till they prove they're arse.. Like any football fan would.
If you had to witness weekly the absolute shower of poo that we have had under Gerrard you'd understand what I mean. 4 wins in a calendar year is a joke for a team with our level of investment.
Newcastle have gone from relegation zone to current top 4 in the same time frame.

I think Maguire grew into the game. Made a few mistimes challenges early on, and seemed out of position once or twice in 1st half. He was also ultra ultra safe when playing out from back, and seemed uneasy playing ball forward (continually passing sideways to Martinez, who needed to take responsibility to play ball forward).
However, understandable. The criticism and mocking he has received over the last year must play on his mind, and last thing he wants is to come into a side that has been a lot more solid, and mess up.
Confidence grew in second half. Strong in the air and some good challenges. Blocked an almost certain goal as well. Element of luck, but he was in a position to get in the way.
Martinez is looking like an absolute giant at the moment though. I think he must boost all the defence around him, great attitude. Future captain surely? Dalot is a completely different player this season.
Casemiro is also a class act. When Fred and McTomminay played his position, they always played with a sense of panic and desperation, and got pulled all over the place. Casemiro just calmly gets around the pitch and seems to do the job beautifully. Lots of positives, Rashford and Dalot are different players this season.
Never any expectations to really win anything when ten Hag arrived, just wanted to see progress. So far, I am very content.

Now that Pagbas gone it looks like Graeme Sourness as turned his attention to Martinez.

I heard that today. He didn't want to go back on his initial assessment, and then also threw in he doesn't think he is quick enough. And he still believes he will get found out (because no defenders over 6ft have ever made a mistake, or been out done by an attacker)
Every time United concede a header, you can almost guarantee Souness and Carragher will be desperate to tell the world Martinez is 5ft 9. Even if Martinez isn't marking the guy, it'll be his fault because of some reason like Utd having to make up for his short stature.

Yeah, not great. Although he had some way to catch up with the appalling Martin Keown.

Maguire was utter dross. It's sad to see him in the current state. All he did was stand in the way of one shot, the rest was terrible. He can barely put one foot infront of the other and looks lost. Real concerns if he starts in the World Cup, although the easy start might well help build his confidence up.
Martinez has been excellent of late and looks a real battler who would die for the shirt. I gave him some stick when it was deserved but he's done well. He's been found out against teams with physical strikers but at the moment theres only a handful in the league so he might still get away with it.
Eriksen has been absolutely superb, a class apart in that dreadful midfield.
