FACQF: Manchester Utd 1-1 West Ham Utd (13/03/16)

[fjthegrey]

Sakho > Emenike will happen at half time.

f*** putting O'Brien against Martial. Easily their best player.

Hoping they will tire.

[Hammer in Hornchurch]

We had no outlet right then. Job for Eminike to get Antonio forward.

Possibly Obiang on for Lanzini too.

[Lee_WHU]

Worked hard, played ok.

Couple things I'm not enjoying... when things get tight in the middle they seem to be getting a lot of ricochets and rebounds off an arse or whatever into their path. If that happens in the box it's most likely 1-0. Also when Varela and Lingard are on the attack Fellaini pulls out to the far left which I don't mind up against the stronger Antonio, but when Martial cuts in Fellaini is left alone with Cresswell and we've been lucky Man Utd haven't exploited that.

Getting the rub of the green in terms of decisions though.

Looking forward to seeing Sakho later.

Cresswell again the main threat.

[Neil Orr fan club]

Think Sakho will offer more of a threat up front than either Carroll or Emineke. Carroll is frustrating me he jumps with his feet on the floor and has appeared in the centre half position when we have looked to counter

[Vince]

Thank God we have Martin Tyler and Stewart Robson commentating over here.

Slightly edged the first half Sakho on after 60 minutes to score the winner.

[POP POP POP Robson]

Looking forward to Sakho coming on and terrorising them and maybe Song

[Italian Hammer]

Seems too congested down our left with no outlets forcing us too move it backwards and sideways.

Would like to see Sakho and Valencia 2nd half for at least 30 minutes to bring more pace

He's played a blinder and people still complain. Working his nuts off.

[Lee_WHU]

Alternatively straight swap for Sahko or Valencia

Not even a choice, that.

[Johnny Byrne's Boots]

Just seen the Emenike header again. To be fair to him, the ball was slightly behind him and he had to lean back to head it. Not much chance of getting any real power into it like that.

[Crossd_Hammrs]

I suppose it depends on whether Bilic thinks we should go all out for a win today, or keep it safe and possibly have to settle for a replay back at the BG.

[shortofbrillant]

Thank God we have Martin Tyler and Stewart Robson commentating over here.

They actually referred to us as United.

[I am Lawro]

Not getting the luck of the bounce in this game. I hope that isn't an indication that today isn't our day.

Emenike should have buried at least one of those chances. Like most, looking forward to seeing Sakho.

[Crossd_Hammrs]

Carroll's stats: 19 attempted passes - 47% success rate!

Our best player this half and has actually set up some of our better attacking moves with his feet. I was thinking a change of formation might be what we need, with JOB coming on, but I think Sahko for Emenike would the better swap with how Carroll is playing.

Also, is it just me or have we been roped in to playing the slow build-up that Man Utd have instilled? If we were playing our actual game I think we'd be a goal or two ahead by now.

[Jiminy_Cricket]

Our bench is much stronger. Our substitutes could be the difference.

Christ! I can actually say that against Man Utd away...when did that happen?

[SRXT]

Carroll's stats: 19 attempted passes - 47% success rate!

Probably about the same as the rest of the team. The ball is bobbling around all over the ****ing place.

[JULIAN-IS-MY-HERO]

seems to me payet isnt get the ball much or lanzini, lanzini for obiang, and sakho on at some point please.

payet needs to be more involved, cresswell has been great. such a solid player all round.

[MadMart]

Fuckimng CHARGE - they are no great shakes Man Utd - get the ball wide to Creswell with someone overlapping and cross it - wallopp goal - job done, then repeat COYI I ****ing love West Ham
