    We won't, as a club, question the decision and it will just keep happening.

    We've had some shockers from VAR in the two seasons we've had it.

    VAR will probably check this as well.

    The 3 kids are doing ok so far. Hjelde not going to be bossed by Antonio

    Bate trying boss midfield, just needs to relax a little as he has more time than he thinks

    Some nice touches from Greenwood

    Who is this 'Glick' that the ITV commentator alleges is playing for us? Never heard of him!

    Agreed but only thing with I feel like he seems a bit slow with his decision making and isn’t sure what to do with it. Shame he didn’t connect with the volley.

    Substandard commentary.

    Trying to make out that Leeds were only without Bamford and Raphinha.

    What about Phillips, Cooper, Rodrigo, Struijk, Gelhart, Forshaw for starters

    That Antonio doesn’t half fall over a lot for a big bloke. You could see Bowen was offside without VAR. How can they say because he didn’t kick it he was onside, he only doesn’t kick it because Meslier gets there first but Bowen’s attempt stops him collecting the ball. Shocking decision. I hate VAR. I’d have been happier if they’d just given the goal, now I just feel cheated

I'm sitting here baffled in so many ways that was wrong yet its still a goal. yet they chalk off goals when a players hair on his arm is in a offside position yet when there was so many things wrong here they allow it wtf am I watching it should of been looked at once and announced no goal. Im watching it now its foooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooking offside its offside what am i missing

    Considering the strong West Ham selection we’ve done well, youngsters all looking decent but not ready to take 1st teamers spaces just yet so fine for back up. Hopefully Meslier and Firpo are both okay. Absolutely horrendous decision from VAR, Bowen offside and interfering with play. It literally couldn’t have been more a simple decision, shocking. Shame as we weren’t doing too badly. On a side note it was never a free kick against Bate at the end of that half, clearly won the ball.

    Well. The officials haven't done us any favours again. I really don't make a habit of blaming refs. It seems to be all I've done this season. This particular ref has sided with Antonio backing in all game. He is grabbing, backing in and then falling over and getting the free kick. I'm not even mentioning the VAR decision, it's just plain wrong, there's not even a debate to be had on that one. Even the lino is not flagging for the ball going out of play. The officials have been as bad as I've seen yet they strangely enjoy having a laugh and joke with the West Ham lads.

    As for the display. We've not been too bad.

    Hjelde looks very very good at 18, he's been really strong.

    Bate has worked hard with the press, been neat and tidy but needs to just settle a bit on the ball. Should have scored tbf.

    Greenwood looks a little bit lost up there. His workrate is good and he has left his foot in a bit which I like but if he runs to the front post he needs to be more aggressive and get in front of the defender. He has been a little too easy to block off. I don't mind shooting on sight but a couple of times there were better options.

    Think we’ve done fairly well considering.

    The teenagers look a bit lightweight. Guess that’s because they’re teenagers. You have to get up pretty early in the morning to catch me out.
