FA Cup live

Great play from Yaya for the goal

Nice shimmy from....... raheem!

Hammers getting nailed!

Wtf? Was that some credit?? Lol!

That was a lovely touch from Sergio.

Will be fun at work tomorrow !!  They already think I'm a gruff Northerner 

Willy catches the ball. Are you watching Claudio?

Bastards making you work on a Saturday?

Zabba could have been through there

Been here since Tuesday too and not home till next Tuesday.   Easier to do it when people are not there.  This will be good banter tomorrow though.

Silva gets his well deserved rest

Awful pass from noble

Game has gone off the boil

Silva has been sublime this season, always with a smile too.  Love the little man.

It's a non event now though isn't it.

Oops pass from zabba

Sterling did well not to take a tumble there

Good to see Garcia on after so long

More city fans left than hammers fans

Fabian Delph is he new ;-)

Nolito has been bobbins since he's come on

50p head finally scores :-)

Stones scores from a corner!!!

Pep looks much happier tonight

As much as West Ham have been proper shit we look really balanced tonight.  Maybe it's our time to win 13 straight games now.

No injury time?

Much better tempo from us. Much quicker passing when it mattered. More clinical in the first half. We could have scored 10 if we wanted

Muppets on the pitch, so Oliver just blew for time.

Sterling in behind Aguero suits both players for me.

I agree, the balance was spot on tonight. So many players being able to rotate and swap sides.

V. Good display. Could easily have been 8-0.

Silva...brilliant tonight. Sterling, 90 mins. MOM and dwarves a goal.

Deserves....lol!

Which Dwarf Blue, Dopey ?

Sterling? No still don't get it. Bang average, but still he's great at giving away free kicks by running into the back of people.
Performance might shut up the anti Pep brigade, even though it was only against a shit West Ham team.

a full strength shit west ham team though..  :p

BMRTV on the bbc making their predictions.

I really do wonder if they know that much at all. Jesus was never going to figure...'I think it'll be a big day for Gabriel Jesus" says Alex!

Was nice to see what we can do without the 3 liabilities 
Kokarov Bravo & Navas
Pep will probably bring all 3 back v Everton who will be much more up for it than WHU

I must have been watching the same match Martin Samuel was. Not sure what match you were watching TBM.

Thought KDB was bang average and has been for may weeks now....he needs to seriously up his game. Thought Garcia shown some nice touches when he came.

But you weren't on Martin's side last week though when he had a pop at Pep. For me, Sterling still isn't doing enough with his talent.  He needs to be producing much more consistently and regularly. The boy has talent, is still young, but he'll be under pressure once Sane finally ups his game and once Jesus settles into Manchester.

Look, Sterling's 3 PL seasons at LFC were:

Goals - Assists

2 - 1
7 - 5
9 - 3

At City:

2015-16 8 - 2
2016 -17 6 - 5

For a winger, 10 goals a season is very good. He'll probably get that this year.

KDB has only scored 2 PL goals this season and he plays in a position that affords him more chances to score and he takes free kicks.

Sterling's doing OK this season....

I agree he's doing ok this season. But I want more!!!

Don't we all...

Raheem Sterling has completed 15 take-ons in the opposition's box this season, more than any other player in Europe's top 5 leagues.

And he's bang average!!! Lmao!

take on me, that was by A-ha wasn't it?

Yeah Bluey, in my opinion he is bang average "lmao"!!!!

Lmao!

The thing that made me lmao was his attempted chip over the Burnley keeper last week....good job Serge banged the ball in the net to deflect his embarrassment

Tbh, it didn't make me lmao, it just made me think omfg!

I cant understand how a guy who is playing as good as he is at the moment gets so much stick. last week against Burnley FFS he stubbed his toe into the ground, show me a footballer who has never done that before. Last season I remember Silva doing exactly that against Crystal Palace it happens.

 Sterling has been playing brilliantly this season yet every little thing that doesn't go his way gets picked up by some on here. I give credit where it is due when he has a bad game I will say so & believe me last season I could have strangled him. My only beef is I do feel he needs to toughen up & not get knocked off a ball so easy.

I finally got to watch the game tonight & as poor as west Ham were we were good which was a credit to pep given the stick he has been given these past couple of weeks. Sterling was my MOM & for me our poorest players were Stones & KDB.

I still think we need to step up a bit for Sundays game against Everton as we always seem to struggle against a koeman side & after the stinging criticism they got from their manager after yesterdays defeat I reckon they will be going out with a serious point to prove.

It's all opinions. You don't agree with my opinion and I can't see how anyone can say he has played brilliantly.
At the end of the day Oz we both think we're right, but only one of us is actually right

I know I am thanks tbw.
