Manager Erik ten Hag said Manchester United were “far better” than West Ham and the victims of “very poor” refereeing after Jarrod Bowen’s 92nd-minute penalty consigned the visitors to a 2-1 defeat at London Stadium on Sunday.
The 20-time champions are 14th courtesy of their fourth loss of their top-flight campaign, with Ten Hag incensed when David Coote consulted his pitchside monitor on the advice of Video Assistant Referee Michael Oliver as part of a lengthy review and awarded the Hammers the decisive spot kick.
“Football is not always the best team winning,” Ten Hag told Sky Sports. “It is very obvious and clear that we were far better than our opponents.
Ten Hag: “In this moment definitely the luck is not on our side. It is not about me. Last season was not different but in the end we turned it around. We are so determined it will be the same again. We have to turn it around + we will.” #MUFC

“There were two things: we didn’t score and it was a very poor decision from the referee – on the field and definitely off it. I asked them for some explanations and they gave it, but when it’s not clear and obvious, the VAR should not interfere.
“That was the instruction before the season. They don’t keep their own process and that was very poor. When you take so long in a very messy situation and you have to consider if it’s a penalty or not, then it’s clear that it’s not a penalty.”
Ten Hag: “We create so many chances, first half is exactly how I want to see my team playing. So dominant. Six or seven 100% chances we should score. When you don’t you have to keep calm. That is a point of improvement but I had not so many criticisms of my team.” #MUFC
