And lets give credit to both teams - a hard fair fought contest with no bookings,cynical fouls or attempts at cheating - quite refreshing and a credit to all that took part - well done

Well done West Ham, brilliant to get through and hope to get another home tie against whomever it will be on Saturday morning.

Hat off to Moyes, excellent tactics and good players that came in to do the hardest job. West Ham strength in depth are getting better as training coaches MADE the difference and brought all 25 players to the SAME LEVEL.

Can I just mention that Jon Moss is an absolute cunt of a referee, and his two assistants weren't much better!

Great win and well deserved, we were by far the better team 2nd half and they brought on more 1st choice players to have 8 of them finishing the game but still couldn't match us.

Dawson and Diop were immense, but MOTM for me was Areola, not for the saves but his all round handling and distribution

His distribution is noticeably superior to Fabianski. Even in his prime Fabianski's distribution left a lot to be desired.

Jon Moss ? That is a given, although I didn't think his performance tonight was too bad. It was a typical domestic cup tie imo. Didn't take too much refereeing because no one was flying into the sort of tackles we usually see in PL games.

I'm afraid that's reserved for Arsenal, who automatically get a home draw in every round.
Love a cup of Rosey I do.

Well done boys, I'm so proud of you.

I do think Foden's effort should have been re-taken though as Grealish was clearly fouled as he struck it.
