The winning goal came from the penalty spot&nbsp;after a clash between Matthijs de Ligt and Danny Ings. Match referee David Coote did not give the penalty at the time but subsequently awarded a spot-kick after being told to review the incident by VAR Michael Oliver. Webb, who is the chief refereeing officer at PGMOL, thinks it was an error to give the penalty and has already made his opinion on the matter known, according to <a href="https://www.thetimes.com/sport/football/article/howard-webb-penalty-decision-that-sealed-erik-ten-hags-fate-was-wrong-jbkhzj0k8" target="_blank"><em>The Times</em></a>. </p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>The result left Manchester United down in 14th place in the table and with <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/erik-ten-hag-man-utd-playing-good-football-will-turn-around-season-14th-in-premier-league-table-west-ham-loss/bltfbdf84550c92f298#csa23adfbf6c55e63e" target="_blank">Ten Hag bemoaning his bad luck after the game</a>.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Manchester United have won just 12 Premier League points so far this season, their worst return after 10 games of a league campaign since 1986-87. </p><p><strong></strong></p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Van Nistelrooy will oversee Manchester United's next two games against PAOK in the Europa League and Leicester in the Premier League before stepping aside for Amorim. The 39-year-old will take charge of United for the first time against Ipswich Town on November 23. </p>
