Man United Held To Goalless Draw At West Ham

He said: We showed clearly we were playing to win the match.

“I saw that there was a bit going on but the game had never been that kind of game all night and it was a bit out of nowhere”.

“Even the ones who probably play the final, to rest for a couple of weeks is probably not the best preparation for that”.

“When I say love, I say it footballistically – players you don’t totally believe have the level of the squad but you have to keep”. Lukaku is expected to be back in time for the FA Cup final against Chelsea, and he can’t return soon enough because, without him, there was no presence beyond the West Ham centre backs.

“Now we have the objective to finish with more than 80 points”, Mourinho added.

West Ham: Adrian 8 (out of 10), Declan Rice 6, Angelo Ogbonna 6, Aaron Cresswell 6, Pablo Zabaleta 6, Cheikhou Kouyate 6, Mark Noble 6, Moses Masuaku 6, Joao Mario 6, Manuel Lanzini 6, Marko Arnautovic 7.

This was only the third time in 22 Premier League away fixtures against West Ham that United failed to score and they endured a frustrating opening half as Hammers goalkeeper Adrian consistently blocked their route to goal.

West Ham have not recorded back-to-back Premier League victories since January 2017.

“For most of my seasons, apart from one past year, I’ve been competing at the top six, eight”.

With nine minutes to go until the break, Arnautovic looked to have teed up Joao Mario for the opening goal after a mazy run down the right and into the box.

Despite finishing as runners-up in the league it’s been a disappointing season for United, not least for the manner in which they’ve gone about games like this. They’ve drawn four and lost once since then, with the defeat coming at West Ham in 2015-16.

The draw extends Jose Mourinho’s unbeaten streak against David Moyes to 11 games.

The Red Devils are the only club not to have drawn a Premier League match in 2018.

An away win won’t see Everton move any higher than the eighth place they already occupy but a loss, alongside a Leicester win at Tottenham, could see the visitors down to ninth.
