When my phone pinged to say we were 2-0 down, I went for a walk. Was quite pleased to later discover we had drawn 1-1.

Decent away point in the circumstances.

And a decent healthy walk for you. Win win as they say.

Especially on a lovely spring afternoon, helps keep me slim and trim. :)

What was Zaniolo's 'shush' in aid of?

Would have been worse if he did a 'Z' gesture.

Thought we were going to lose that. Moyes changed the tide with taking a forward off for a defender on 65 mins at home. Bizarre decision that played straight into our hands. Thought we were a bit fortunate with the first VAR call. Second one at the end was correct. A very useful point.
Fortunate ? He practically threw it in  .

I thought Martinez got caught out badly with the cross and was all over the place. I couldn’t see the handball clearly. Thankfully VAR did.
Wasn't his finest hour . We always seem sluggish straight after HT .

It was a great block from Cash. He does have some great positional sense for blocking shots.

Moyse moaning about the disallowed goals “don’t know what we can do about it”. How about not cheating and actually scoring legal goals you twerp?
And why wasn’t Soucek booked for attempting to cheat?

We do need to look at our defending on set pieces. Both the disallowed goals the defending is abysmal.

I’m happy he isn’t booked, potentially suspended, as long as he scores against Spurs.

Not sure if Emery is trying to prove a point with Konsa at full back, not sure what the point is as I have never seen him play well there. Emery saw his error and made the correct changes at half time, Lenglet being pilloried for being chosen to play out of position. All the subs made a difference, Zaniola for all the criticism played his part well. Diaby looked more like the player he was a few months ago and Cash saved the day and nearly won it for us.
Special mention to the female commentator who had far too much to say for a comments person usually to rubbish Villa.

Tielemans should also get some credit for his ball to Diaby, perfect for Diaby and just out or reach of the defenders.

What was their other disallowed goal chalked off for. Didn't go to VAR. Just wondered. Not easy to see from 5 miles away in Row 64...

We were in row 53. It made me pine for the away end at Zrinjski

We do need to look at our defending on set pieces. Both the disallowed goals the defending is abysmal.

It does show for all these set piece coaches clubs employ now that sometimes a good old fashioned diagonal inswinger into the six yard box can create havoc. Bowen and Ward Prowse get tremendous whip on them.

Good news is they've got Spurs in two weeks and their keeper badly struggles against corners that are whipped towards him so hopefully West Ham will get at least a point off them that way.
