West ham do deserve credit they did attack when they got the chance, went close at times and didn't panic with team selection. Hull city are another who deserve credit at times, 4-3 it was v United. Love West ham at the minute and Fulham and Stoke and Wigan (nearly)

Agree with this too, can speak regarding United as that's who I watch most and teams do come to Old trafford and put the walls up. Shame really because although they don't have £30m players they can get results as FA cup, Hull city etc have shown us. The old theory of "if we put the walls up long enough hopefulyl we'll nick a goal".
