Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson declared his side performed like “champions” to beat West Ham.
The Premier League leaders recovered from 2-0 down to win 4-2 with striker Wayne Rooney getting a hat-trick.
“We played like champions,” said Ferguson. “It was a real championship performance as far as I’m concerned.”
Our esteemed Blogchief having studied in England should have an innate sympathy for the underdog. Poor West Ham is trailing at the bottom of the premier league and will be relegated. They performed manfully to be in the lead at any point in the game against an international powerhouse like Manchester United. Respect to West Ham.
West Ham thoroughly outplayed them in the first half and deserved to lead, no question.
