Aston Villa 0 West Ham 1
Received the text updates for this while on the Ravenglass and Eskdale railway to Dalegarth, which was all very pleasant. Finally the Hammers had some luck with Fornals’ goal taking a huge deflection, and also with the Villa goal correctly disallowed after a corner went out of play.
Emerson started in a five-man defence but it was sub Benrahma who changed the performance in the second half as the Irons reverted to a back four. Scamacca started and tested Martinez whole looking useful with little service and Kehrer will gain confidence from keeping a clean sheet at the back.
It all made Jonathan Wilson’s Observer piece on the Hammers’ crisis seem a tad premature. Plus Lucas Paquetta looks likely to arrive soon. Irons!
