West Ham 2-0 Man Utd LIVE RESULT: Under-fire Ten Hag loses again as Bowen and Kudus sink underperforming United

Last time out…

It’s not too dissimilar a tale for Manchester United who, despite what appears to be a terrible campaign, remain just six points behind arch-rivals Manchester City.

The Red Devils have lost 12 of their last 25 matches in all competitions, which is as many defeats as they recorded in all 62 competitive games last season.

They did, however, earn an excellent point against Liverpool last weekend.

Was it really an ‘excellent point’?

Why wouldn’t it be? They had host of absentees including captain Bruno Fernandes and were up against a free-scoring side who boasted a 100% record at home – not to mention they arrived after successive defeats to Bayern Munich and Bournemouth.

Last time out…

West Ham have been wildly inconsistent of late, and that’s not really something that you would associate with a David Moyes side.

The Hammers sandwiched two five-goal defeats to Fulham and Liverpool with routine victories over Freiburg and Wolves – keeping clean sheets in both.

Yes, it was a terrible display at Anfield, but that’s not too unexpected given David Moyes has never won there and West Ham have beaten Liverpool once in 60 years on Merseyside.

A win in this match would take them to 30 points after 18 Premier League matches for the first time since 2014-15.

So I guess what I’m saying is — I have no idea what to expect from West Ham today. Nor do their fans I would imagine.
