Spurs were top after matchday 2 or 3 in 14/15 8-)

They should give us a trophy for that imo

Actually they should give us a trophy for having Tim Sherwood as a manager

That was a crap first half all around.

No atmosphere, both teams lackluster on the pitch. Thought the Geordie fans would be more up for it in their PL return.

Shelvey is, and always will be, a clown.

Could be top tonight with a last 10 minute push.

We've had the chances to score a few more, but the team didn't look completely at it today. Still happy with an unglamorous 3 points, but need to shape up for Chelsea next week.

Kyle Walker-Peters looks good.

4-0. United look brilliant. Pogba actually looking like Pogba, Lukaku and Matic look settled already, Rashford a huge threat from the wing, defensively solid.

West Ham meanwhile look as dismal as ever.

Still can't believe Chelsea gave up Matic. What a player.

Matic wanted to move and he has never been quite the same player for Chelsea after Barnes flew into him. (2015 he was great, one of the best if not the best in his position. 2016 he was just trash, one of the worst players alongside Ivanovic. Last year he was average, had great games followed by ones he went missing in.

In the end he maybe needed a change to be that great player again. We'll see after the season's done. I think both teams got a good deal out it.

Another 4-0 crushing by United. Sure, it's Swansea, but they offered more than West Ham did in this match.

Heno on pace to surpass Henry's 20 assist record. Dude is dropping dimes like no tomorrow.

West Ham wasting no time in continuing their comical ways. Down to 10 men, should really be 9. Give a penalty away. 2-0 down to a team that can't score goals.

West Ham looking like the worst team in the league by far

But Bilic is a top 15 manager, remember that time West Ham finished 7th

Don't think they'll go down, though.

Leicester looking good. I really like Maguire.

We jinxed Southampton. :nonono:

This is why Spam won't go down though, Chicharito is a good pickup for them.

About 3 pens and an onside goal ruled out. Class
