Gonna be honestly hard to pick a man of the match out of the subs

I tell you what, Karen Carney's been pretty quiet for the last ten minutes!

(because she's not commentating on this game)

We'd be top of the bloody league for handbags and afters

We've turned into such beefers, I guess earlier in the season we were more likely to be 3-0 up at half time and dealing with meekly shell-shocked opponents

Emery: get on there and get us a goal Nicolo

Zaniolo: I can do a goal and a needless yellow. Final offer

Nicolo my man

Karen Carney's gonna be really confused about all the hatemail she's getting for a game she's not covering

Every time we play West Ham I’ll always get flashbacks of that day

The journey back from that one was soooo long, the fluky 2008 Milner deflection one and the 2011 late Agbonlahor winner one made up for it a bit a few years later

That turned into a pretty tough watch, though we should probably have had a penalty, don't get why he's allowed to wave his hand around there to block the cross. It's still salvageable but almost needs West Ham to do something stupid, which we've had a monopoly on so far

Not letting people take a corner they've just won because time's up always feels like kind of a dick move

That is...not a natural position for the hand

Reaaaally don't want to concede first here

I reckon that corner went exactly to plan from Moreno's point but Bailey messed up by not getting back onside to volley it in

We don't need to be giving these daft corners either

Jamaica left Bailey out of their squad…. Wtf

There must be more to that, he's had beef with them before and demanded conditions to play and stuff right? Edit: answered above!

There was some good little interplay between Rogers and Moreno there, wonder if part of why Moreno's struggled a bit this season is not having Ramsey there much , those two had a good little understanding in left sided attacking positions last season

I periodically nervously scan the fixture list to see when we have to play a tricky return fixture against Fulham, somehow repeatedly forgetting that we've already had six points off them

It feels almost asking too much for Spurs to be this Spursy

That was Henderson's best ever free kick

I've never seen a player get so many yellow cards in 15 minute cameos, at what point does it start to have "he has money on this" vibes

I thought Chong was getting free kicks for fairly ridiculous overreactions to light taps, but having seen one from this angle maybe there was something in them

Is Oliver just flipping a coin to decide whether he penalises Mengi for pulling Watkins down

Two absurdly simple goals for Watkins, the perfect hat trick is on

Frustrating for Ramsey

Good away performance so far, Watkins is such a pro. It's nerve-wracking to watch but Moreno and Lenglet dealing well with the press so far

Where did the 5 minutes of injury time come from in the first half?

There were four goals and Watkins spent some time getting treatment for a knock in the back

Yeah an excellent 90 minutes from Bailey, was unplayable in attack and then dug in defensively in the last 20. Very good performance from the midfield/attacking players all around today (though Doug actually had a bit of a shaky second half in open play), shame it got terrifying for a bit but at least Man United's goal difference has returned to where it belongs
