West Ham United lost 2-0 at Arsenal last Wednesday thanks to a combination of a much-changed Hammers team and the ref Anthony Taylor.

Vladimir Coufal was sent off for two ridiculously soft yellow cards and after that, David Moyes’ men weren’t able to fight back from 1-0 down.

In fact they let Emile Smith Rowe in to wrap up the points for the home side after Gabriel Martinelli had put them 1-0 up.

The Irons looked like they had a good chance to bounce back with a home game against Norwich on Saturday but it was postponed after a Covid-related request from the Canaries.

Will Pugh was at the Emirates and he is joined by James Jones to look back at that game as well as to look ahead to West Ham’s next two fixtures – Tottenham away in the Carabao Cup and Southampton at home on Boxing Day.

Daily Express sports editor and huge Spurs fan Alex Milne dials in to chat all things Lilywhites with Antonio Conte having turned them around since taking over from Nuno Espirito Santo.

And the Evening Standard’s West Ham correspondent, and massive Saints fan, Jack Rosser also joins to look ahead to that Southampton clash.

The lads make their Betway charity selections after failing to pick a winner for the Gunners game.

They look back at a decent League Cup win and a solid transitional year for West Ham Women under Ollie Harder.

All of that before saying goodbye for 2021.

There will be a pre-recorded review of the year show that goes out between Christmas and new year but this will be the last ‘proper format’ show of the year.

Thank you so much for all your support this year, it’s been phenomenal and we are both really grateful.

We both hope you have a fantastic Christmas and look forward to the show getting back on the road in 2022.
