Three changes for the Monday evening visit of Manchester United

Substitute Marcus Rashford came close but it was Ibrahimovic who secured the points in the 77th minute. Both of the teams have placed at the above 12 in the Premier League 2016-17 Standing Table. The Hammers started the match well, but their momentum received a massive blow after 15 minutes in controversial fashion. Jones makes a scissor, he got the ball but it was risky.

West Ham United were reduced to 10 men early on when Sofiane Feghouli was controversially shown a straight red card for a tackle on Phil Jones.

November 30, 2016 – In the second meeting with West Ham in the space of three days, United secure their place in the EFL Cup semi-finals easily courtesy of a 4-1 rout. Zlatan told ESPN, “You know when you have a good student, you always learn, that’s exactly what I have in Mickey, He has been a good example, learning from Ibra-cadabra, so I’m happy for him”. Antonio Valencia really should’ve scored just after the half-hour mark, only for Daren Randolph to pull off a superb save… Rashford was excellent for the time he was on the pitch and gave Nordtveit a torrid time on West Ham’s right hand side. Rashford has just eight starts so far this season, and has often been shuttled into a winger’s role instead of his preferred central striker position.

With money to spend and room in the squad folllowing the premature end to Simone Zaza and Jonathan Calleri’s loan spells, West Ham are pushing hard to sign old boy Jermain Defoe from Sunderland.

Former West Ham midfielder Michael Carrick is set to return to the starting XI after missing the Middlesbrough win through illness, replacing Belgian midfielder Maroune Fellaini.

Darren Randolph- 6: Unfortunate to have conceded both goals, after making a number of smart saves to keep his side in the contest.

Mourinho responded by introducing Chris Smalling for Henrikh Mkhitaryan in a negative substitution to protect the lead. “With the help of everyone, we won and we continue on this run of results”.

Then, Zlatan Ibrahimovic continued his superb run of form by firing home on 78 minutes.

Now according to reports emerging out of England, revelations can be made that West Ham are currently eyeing up a double swoop for the duo of Shane Long and Scott Hogan.

Mata struck the opener from the cross of Rashford, who was named man of the match, and Neville said after the game that Mourinho’s impact was enormous at London Stadium.
