WEST HAM UNITED 3, MANCHESTER UNITED 1
A troubled week went from bad to worse for Jose Mourinho after his Manchester United side had their worst start to a season in 29 years after a poor defeat by West Ham at the London Stadium left the Reds in eighth.
WEST HAM 0, MANCHESTER UNITED 0
A goalless draw at the London Stadium handed David De Gea the Premier League Golden Glove for his 18th clean sheet this season as West Ham played out some typical end of season fayre against Manchester United.
WEST HAM 1, MANCHESTER CITY 4
With the Premier League title already in the bag, Manchester City’s attention has turned to making their mark on the Premier League record books and Raheem Sterling was the man who was behind City’s sparkling performance in London at West Ham today, the provider of goals for Leroy Sane, Gabriel Jesus, and Fernandinho while ex-City defender Pablo Zabaleta turned the ball into his own net.
HUDDERSFIELD TOWN 1, WEST HAM 4
Marko Arnautovic was the West Ham hero as Huddersfield Town wilted in the second half after matching the Hammers during a first half filled with endeavour if not shots on target.
The Austrian first won the ball that Mark Noble opened the scoring with, before scoring seconds into the second half and laying on both of Manuel Lanzini’s goals shortly afterwards.
Joe Lolley was responsible for West Ham’s opening goal but atoned for the error with a great equaliser before the visitors overwhelmed them in the second half to secure West Ham manager David Moyes his 200th win in the Premier League.
Defeat at the hands of West Ham left Town closer to the drop zone in 13th place on 24 points – just 4 points from Stoke in 18th, with their opponents leapfrogging them into 11th on 25 points.
MAN CITY 2, WEST HAM 1
Manchester City’s form has dipped, but they keep on winning as they stumbled past struggling West Ham at the Etihad.
In the past week City’s displays against Huddersfield, Southampton and West Ham have failed to hit the dizzy heights of early season.
What would ordinarily have been three comfortable wins turned out to be three nail-biters with victory only secured through late goals.
