Benjamin Sesko's late added-time equaliser means Manchester United remain unbeaten under Michael Carrick, the final score against an unlucky West Ham finishing a 1 all draw.

• Tomas Soucek puts West Ham in front with a close-range finish
• Casemiro has a header ruled out for offside for Manchester United
• Substitute Benjamin Sesko strikes deep into added time to preserve caretaker head coach Michael Carrick's unbeaten start
• West Ham stay in 18th, two points from safety, while Man Utd remain fourth

That's 21 points that West Ham have conceded after leading ......could be in the Top half of the table even if they had saved 11 of those points

Spurs current injury list:

Maddison - been out all season still weeks away.
Kulu - likely another surgery and months away.
Kudus - not due back till end season.
Richie - still 5/6 weeks away
Bentacur - probably a few weeks still off
Bergval - Season done.
Davies - done.
Udogie - 5 weeks out.
Porro - 2/3 weeks away
Odobert - likely season done.
Romero - suspended 3 more games
Danso - 6/7 weeks away

Spurs are playing at least the next 3 games with 13 maximum senior players.

Whilst very true legend Tiger One, it is a recurring scenario for Spurs, same last year under Ange, but where do you draw the line.
Apart from Romeros stupidity, all are injury related. Why Spurs , are our prep and training regimes incorrect, or are we just unlucky .
And replacements ? Used to be that injuries gave second tier players the opportunity to step up but I don’t see a lot that.
So our recruiting must be off, as we have no depth to cover these bad times.
So Frank, like Ange, has a ready make excuse for poor performances, unfortunately we don’t have a Michael Carrick to come in and resurrect a once great club back to the top of the league.
The whole thing is very disappointing as a very long time Spurs fan. So over to the board now,however, their decisions in the past don’t fill you with much optimism.
Come on Ye Spurs ( in all areas )

Well, first step taken but doesn’t necessarily mean success. I see the call by many is for Harry Rednapp to step in until end of season. Not for me.

Spurs have a sad history regarding their managers' appointments:

 

[happy_tiger]

A draw with Wolves and Forest .....at least still only 3 points separate Forest and WHU in relegation battle

A draw with Wolves and Forest .....at least still only 3 points separate Forest and WHU in relegation battle

How Wolves drew this game with Nottingham Forest is a mystery, other than a great display by their keeper!
The final score was a nil all draw.
Watching attempt after attempt by Forest miss, opportunities left, right and centre - just none in the back of the net!

Manchester City move three points behind leaders Arsenal with a convincing 3 nil win against Fulham

Aston Villa leave it late to pick up an important three points as they defeat Brighton 1-0

Burnley complete a magnificent comeback against Crystal Palace, coming back from a 2 goal deficit early in the first half (a brace by newly-transferred Strand Larsen) to score 3 of their own - all before oranges at half time!
Football never fails to surprise!
