    West Ham have made more passes than us. We are not very good. Sick of being served up this shit. Mata, Lingard and Martial all fail to impose themselves on mediocre opposition. We are miles and miles behind Pool and City.
     
    Problem for Dalot is every time he's on the ball lining up for a cross Lukaku decides that that's the perfect time to run the inside right channel and point in front of him for the through ball.

    Yeah Dalot hasnt even been that bad. Not great but not terrible. Pogba, Fred and Lukaku having a good game. Dalot not bad. Mata and Lingard have been shite and Rojo has been below average.

    Overall its not bad at all but the final third is frustrating because Martial and Lingard are offering nothing.

    Id bring Greenwood on for Lingard and let him roam.
     
    Midfield have done a great job getting the ball forward - forwards have done a great job of messing it up.

    Defence looks wobbly as jelly.
     
    Entertaining first half. We have ridden our luck at times, as West Ham have looked a threat. Good to see a number of good through balls/splitting passes coming from our midfield. Just need that final bit to sharpen up in the second half
     
    Every time I see us play it astonishes me how much dross we have our there. Even the simple things look so difficult for our players. Martial, mata, pogba, Lingard been shit, not just today but for a while now
    Pogba has not been shit...
     
    Martial is our new Nani, brilliant for 10 mins frustrating for 80 minutes.

    Needs to be pulled up by Ole. Needs to give more
     
    Abysmal quality in this match. Open, because of both teams ineptitude but the level has been so poor.

    Utd's full backs are such a weakness, Dalot has ability but is probably 18 months away from being a consistent performer while Rojo is just rubbish. Mata or Lingard needs to come off, our midfield is far too open.
     
    Really poor. None of the front six has looked like anything. Very fortunate to be ahead. Got lucky with the offside call against them.

    Really think we'd be served subbing Mata and putting on McTominay. We have zero control in midfield. Every West Ham counter cuts right through the middle of us. We're lucky Chicharito hasn't been given a clear chance yet.
     
    Fred has been excellent so far. Pogba decent. Martial, Lingard, Mata and Lukaku have been really poor. Dalot needs to do better to stop the crosses from coming in. Smalling and Jones have been good.
     
    HT : Poor from both sides. Once again not looking like scoring from open play.
     
    We have been poor so far. Martial and Lukaku not doing much right. Has Lingard been involved at all? Mata has been moving well though and been our best player. Pogba mixed, but doing so many poor things in the final third.
    The defense have not worked well as a unit although done alright individually. There is little harmony though.

    Ole need to take some blame for this since he should work on these things and the fact we are not doing well as a team is on him. We are not attacking nor defending well as a team.
     
    Think it's time for us to give up asking for good football and just get used to boring efficient style. The first games under Ole looks like a false down. What's happening currently is the rule of the previous few years.
    We'll see after Ole gets the first transfer window. He's still using Mourinho and LVG's squads for now.
     
    end product from the forwards not been so good, Martial and and Lingard mainly. I do like Lukaku's movement today, has been made all kinds of runs.
     
    Most of our team pains mean to watch at times. We got more problems than I can even name. Happy to be winning.

    Don't even know what to say about the 4 lads in attack. Consistently mediocre might be apt.
     
    Our attacking potency has dropped off a fecking cliff. What happened to that lovely passing and moving we saw early on under Ole? That quick passing in the final third that cut defences down? It's like a completely different team now.

    Giving the ball away is not considered poor in training, thats the only explanation with this poor show week in week out.

    Martial pogba lingard mata lose the ball like school boys do.
     
    Man standing next to me smells like my deceased Grandfather (pre-death), he wore Joop.

    Look up and he’s about 19.

    Do 19 year olds wear Joop now?
     
    Very open game but lacking quality in the last third - seems to be the same theme last 4-5 games. We have made some nice breaks with west ham very open and then screwed it up with the final balls. Martial is the biggest culprit, its just not happening for him atm. Fred having a steady game again, looks tidy and a lot going through him.

    Lucky to be ahead really, penalty was debatable and their goal looked on-side. 50/50 so far. Need to improve.
     
    We got lucky twice, once with the offside and again with the pen. Both teams poor in front of goal

    We need peak form and fitness Rashford, Lingard, Martial and Pogba for it to happen.
    I don't think we've had all 4 fit and well together since those early games!

    Martial isnt a third of the player Nani is now, let alone when he played for us.
     
    Our attack has gone to pots since we started moving Pogba deeper in the midfield in games. Everything was working so well when he was one of the four players in attack. He was making all of them look better. No wonder the goals have dried.

    Him and Fred are playing well in the midfield in this game but the front four have been terrible (actually Lukaku has been fine). There is hardly any support from the FB's either. Rojo is pub standard and Dalot struggles in defense.

    All in all another painful half of football. Mata, Lingard, Martial & Rojo have been atrocious.

    Get Greenwood on for one of the three behind Lukaku. At the least we can get some joy out of watching a talented youth player on the pitch.
     
    Yeah Dalot hasnt even been that bad. Not great but not terrible. Pogba, Fred and Lukaku having a good game. Dalot not bad. Mata and Lingard have been shite and Rojo has been below average.

    Overall its not bad at all but the final third is frustrating because Martial and Lingard are offering nothing.

    Id bring Greenwood on for Lingard and let him roam.
    You kidding?
     
    Pogba has not been shit...

    This. It amazes me how anyone can watch that first half and think Pogba has been shite.

    Him and Fred were are best players and if the attackers werent so shite today then Fred and Pogba would have looked alot better as they started alot of counter attacks. Pogba has been good defensively aswell.
     
    Imagine thinking Lukaku is the problem in this team. It really does baffle me how people blame him.
     
    We look so laughably average. So sloppy, so cumbersome, constantly choosing the wrong pass.
    And constantly making a hash of the wrong pass as well. I mean why not out Greenwood on and let the youngster play instead of the expected mediocrity from the likes of Lingard and Mata.
