21 reasons why Westham will beat Man United

[Lazie]

The reasons why West Ham will win
1. West Ham have won their last three encounters with Manchester United.

2. It may seem unthinkable for a team to beat Manchester United in four straight Premier League matches, but it has been done (Liverpool, 2000-2002).

3. West Ham have won three of their last six visits to Old Trafford.

4. Manchester United have only won one of their last four Premier League games.

5. The Hammers have played a huge part in costing Manchester United the title twice in recent years.

6. They were also victorious in Manchester United's last home game last season, putting a dampener on the hosts' title celebrations.

7. chickendinner superfact: West Ham have won away at one of the top four teams in each of their last five Premier League seasons - this is the last chance this season.

8. In the past five seasons, West Ham haven't lost their final away league match.

9. They have also been victorious on matchday 37 of their last three Premier League seasons - beating Chelsea, West Brom and Bolton.

10. Meanwhile, Manchester United haven't won their penultimate Premier League game in the past four seasons.

11. While Sir Alex Ferguson didn't lose to Alan Curbishley when he was Charlton manager, he has yet to take a point from West Ham since Curbishley took over.

12. The last two teams to defeat Manchester United at home in the first half of a Premier League season (West Ham last year and Manchester City this year), have gone on to complete the double over them at Old Trafford.

13. Similarly, the last five teams to have beaten Manchester United at Old Trafford have done the double over them that season.

14. Michael Carrick hasn't won against former club West Ham in his four clashes against them for Tottenham and Man United, drawing one and losing three.

15. Cristiano Ronaldo has scored 44 per cent of Manchester United's home league goals this season but can't be relied upon to score against West Ham - he has failed to score in his previous two home games against them.

16. In fact, West Ham are one of just four Premier League sides Ronaldo has failed to score against at Old Trafford - the others are Birmingham, Chelsea and Sunderland.

17. West Ham also boast the best defensive record on the road outside of the top five (1.22 goals conceded a game), despite the fact they lost 4-0 at Tottenham and Liverpool.

18. The biggest deterrent to backing West Ham is that they've only scored three goals in eight games away at top-ten clubs this season - the worst in the league - BUT West Ham have scored in twelve of their last fourteen games with Manchester United.

19. They average a goal a game against Manchester United from their twenty-five Premier League encounters and one goal has proved enough in four of their last five victories against them.

20. Manchester United average just 0.8 goals a game against West Ham in their five meetings since West Ham's promotion and have scored just once in their last three.

21. chickendinner superfact: West Ham's record of conceding just one goal in three league games with Manchester United is unmatched in the Premier League - Manchester City are next closest with two then Chelsea are third with three.

One reason why West Ham will not win:

1. The Empire will not dash whey the title to Chel$ki!!!!!

[Rockman]

The reason why West Ham is dngerous is Alan Curbishley is probably an old shool coach(maybe it is result of not having too many options), his starting team is fixed, ergo well seasoned. Even his substitutions come late in the games.The bigger teams supposedly have the players that make rotation possible and seamless, more often than not,that isn't the case. Things have a way of balancing itself, it has proven the key for a few minows.
The good thing is we have Tevez.
My team is at least two goals better than West Ham though, my money is on Ronaldo having a clinical day, he needs to vent some anger, and West Ham will have to do

Well BoyU ripped apart West Ham...I guess the West Ham players did not know of those 21 reasons...or BoyU simply said, that was then!

[No Mercy]

How could west ham win when them coach decided that

manchester should be champ.

[Lazie]

manchester should be champ.

Have some mercy nuh bredrin? Where you get your information from? How can West Ham's coach decide who should be champ?

[No Mercy]

Where else but England ....

Alan Curbish and other coaches are wolves in sheep clothing for manchester united.

[Lazie]

Alan Curbish and other coaches are wolves in sheep clothing for manchester united.

The man said based on how Manu play they deserve to be champs. During his PC on Friday Wenger says he expects Manu to win. Mark Hughes said that Manu will win ... Why is Alan's views seen differently from the others?

[Rockman]

That is just one reason to lose, they had 21 reasons to win.
If Alan loses his job, it would be for such results right?
Other absurd suggestions;Man U's ground staff over water their half of the fied to slow play..Barca, looking forward to the second half of their strikers playing on a eroded, mushy field.
Ronaldo can't score against good opponents, as if any keeper could have prevented the goals he scored.
He did not know much about the last goal he scored, that is wrong, he redirected the ball.
