Arsenal suffered a 2-0 defeat against West Ham in a Premier League match at the Emirates Stadium. Mikel Arteta, the Arsenal boss, expressed admiration for Declan Rice and acknowledged the challenge of managing expectations. Despite a contentious first goal for West Ham, Arsenal failed to capitalize on numerous opportunities, with David Moyes securing his first away win against Arsenal in 73 attempts. The defeat dealt a blow to Arsenal's title aspirations and highlighted their need for a striker.
McClean volley takes a deflection to go behind for a corner. 3-1, 91 mins

β° HT at The Hawthorns West Brom 1-0 Leeds π€ What did you make of that half? π€ #BringItOn #EFL
Leeds had more of that half but West Brom saw some big chances and took one of them. That should have been a penalty on Gnonto. A definite pull affecting the finish. #lufc

CHANCE: Spence with an inside ball to Gnonto who swings his left boot at it but doesn't catch it nicely. 1-0 on 45 mins. #lufc

π¨ West Brom 1-0 Leeds DIANGANA SCORES!!! β½οΈ π» Commentary - https://t.co/VJgUHnqdM1 #EFL

CHANCE: Summerville shot from distance, well hit but straight in Palmer's direction. He takes no chances and punches it away. 0-0 on 36 mins. #lufc
Spence heads behind, West Brom have another corner. 35th min. #lufc
Summerville been down in West Brom's half for about a minute, Albion playing on. Ref finally blows to halt the game after Leeds clear a cross into the box. 0-0 on 32 mins. #lufc
Penalty shout - Ball over the top, which Leeds have tried a few times. Gnonto brings it down with a great touch and looks like he's pulled to the ground...but not given. #lufc
West Brom in all sorts of trouble at the back, ball pinging about, Gnonto waiting for it to drop, when it does, his effort is blocked behind. 0-0 on 26 mins. #lufc
CHANCE: Darlow comes and doesn't get it, Kipre shot cleared off the line by Spence. Yokuslu prods the follow-up over an exposed goal. Narrow escape. 0-0 on 23 mins. #lufc
Albion trying to hit Wallace with passes when they come forward. Another one leads to a corner. 22nd min. #lufc

HT: Walsall 1 Wrexham 1 Chances at both ends in an eventful first half. Earing capitalised on poor defending for opener before Mullin levelled from the spot. #WxmAFC need a bit more composure in final third after the break.
Byram with the ball in the net, lovely cross and finish...but the flag is up. Offside. Replays show that he was. 0-0 on 17 mins. #lufc
Corberan shouting at West Brom to settle down. The intent has come from Leeds so far. 0-0 on 13 mins. #lufc
Leeds almost in as Molumby dithers and Summerville breaks. Poor first touch forces him to pass to Gnonto rather than drive in behind. Gnonto then fouled 20 yards out. Free-kick coming up. 10th min. #lufc
Lovely pass from McClean releases Mullin but keeper rushes from goal to claim ball. 1-1, 38 mins

βI think we sold one of (our) best players to Arsenal. Probably all managers live or die by their recruitment." Declan Rice left a huge hole in West Ham's team. But last night Moyes and his new signings showed they can survive - and even thrive - without him. @RoshaneSport β¬οΈ

Resolute defending from West Ham. Cannot believe they won, let alone kept a clean sheet. Arsenal lived in and around 18-yard box the last 20-plus minutes. Have to believe the Gunners add a center forward in next few weeks.
FT: #AFC 0-2 #WHUFC. West Ham's last match of 2023 and what a way to end it. Brilliant performance. Moyes played down their chances of fighting for top six but this team can. Wins against Man United & Arsenal show they can. Team is finding consistency, long may it continue.
Home defeat against West Ham makes it one win from four in the Premier League for Arsenal. Eight points dropped. There've been some tough fixtures, but that's not a good enough return for a team with aspirations of winning the title. Poor in both penalty boxes tonight. https://t.co/U3EhOeKHcO

This is David Moyes' 73rd Premier League away game as a manager against Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester United. He has won 0 of the previous 72...
Before tonight, David Moyes has been a visiting manager to the traditional 'big 4' (Man United, Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea) in 70 Premier League matches - his team's record in those games is 0 wins, with 13 consecutive defeats.
As Ward-Prowse prepared to take that corner, I turned to @RoshaneSport and said, "Mavropanos, 2-0". π
GOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLL! Mavropanos scores to make it 2-0 against his former club. Ward-Prowse with the assist. #WHUFC

Not enjoying this Arsenal performance so far.
For clarity... goal was given on-field and as there was no conclusive proof the ball was out of play, they stick with on-field decision. 1-0 West Ham.
Did the ball go out of play?? The goal stands, West Ham lead! #ARSWHU #BBCFootball https://t.co/LKalyfrQvQ
Impossible to tell with that camera angle if the ball was definitely out - though it probably was IMO- so goal for West Ham the correct decision . Technology still for some way to go.
Surely West Ham doesn't have the heart, courage or skill to go to the Emirates and get a win...
