Man United woe

It was another afternoon to forget for Man United as they crashed to a 13th defeat in all competitions before Christmas.

That is the first time that’s happened since 1930.

Meanwhile, it was a fourth league game in a row without a goal for the Red Devils.

That is the first time that’s happened since 1992.

And Stuart Pearce believes that Man United are weak mentally.

Speaking on talkSPORT, he said: “For me there’s a softness in the ranks and a lack of leadership at Manchester United. They were out-fought, out-beaten, and you could just see too many of their players just packed it in on the pitch.”

Hammers into sixth

There you go West Ham fans, merry Christmas!

You are currently sixth, although Newcastle could change that when they face Luton later today.

Kudus reflects on win

What a signing Mohammed Kudus looks to be.

The forward got yet another goal here and looks to have settled into the Premier League very well.

And he’s been speaking to TNT Sports about the win and a goal.

He said: “It’s my job to put the ball in the back of the net and help us get three points.

“I am really happy for the fans because this is the last game before Christmas, so this is the perfect gift for them.

“I want to wish them a happy Christmas.”

West Ham 2-0 Man United – FULL TIME

That’s the end of the game and West Ham have sealed a comfortable 2-0 win over Man United.

It was a poor game until the 72nd minute when Jarrod Bowen finished Lucas Paqueta’s excellent pass.

And then Kobbie Mainoo’s mistake was brutally exploited by Mohammed Kudus.

It’s a huge win for David Moyes and co, while Man United are left in a desperate position.

Stay with us for all the reaction!
