David Moyes had every reason to be unhappy at today’s result against Burnley and made no excuses for a draw which virtually everybody believed would be a win.
The Hammers were so poor in the first half but improved sufficiently to grab a point courtesy of Danny Ings who appeared as a sub nine minutes from the end.
He proceeded to see a goal ruled out for offside against Mike Antonio, hit the bar and grabbed the equaliser – not bad for a bloke who hasn’t been given too many chances and revealed that his time at the club has been “tricky.”
Moyes made two substitutions at half-time, introducing Michail Antonio and Edson Álvarez, and Lucas Paquetá had pulled a goal back within 30 seconds after the visitors had gone two up.
Then Ings and enjoyed a hugely effective time on the pitch and finally curled a well-struck shot against the crossbar which would have given us a win.
But despite a second half improvement Alphonse Areola made a vital late save to deny Josh Brownhill a winner
