As the West Ham players headed en masse for Angelo Ogbonna following the full-time whistle here, the celebrations seemed to have just as much relief attached to them as they did jubilation.
Prior to Ogbonna’s header 10 minutes from time which consigned Leeds to another home defeat, you felt as though a combination of profligacy from the visitors and the heroics of Illan Meslier would leave West Ham heading back to London with just a point, rather than the three which ultimately moved them up to fifth before the rest of the weekend’s action.
