Allardyce blames fixture list
The Hammers boss refused to point the finger at any member of the teams saying: “I wasn’t shocked – it has been coming given the games we have had to cope with.
“There wasn’t the energy level because of the big effort against Manchester United and them playing with 10 men for 30 minutes at Southampton.
“West Brom were much better than us today but I’m not going to criticise my players and those who do don’t know very much about football.
“We also have players injured that we need to get back!”
