Moyes: Hammers absolutely are improving

David Moyes insists West Ham are getting better, despite the results not reflecting the performances.

The Hammers have only won once this season, beating Aston Villa, but have perhaps been unlucky against both Spurs and Chelsea.

The former was a 1-1 draw, while the latter should have been a 2-2 draw, although Maxwel Cornet’s last-minute equaliser was chalked off by VAR, for no good reason.

The Irons go into this weekend’s game against Everton with four points, which is the same tally as Frank Lampard’s side.

However, the Toffees haven’t won a game this term, with their four points all coming from draws, against Liverpool, Leeds, Brentford, and Nottingham Forest.

This week’s game is vital, then, but Moyes thinks the Irons are steadily getting better; on Thursday, they beat Silkeborg 3-2 in the Europa Conference League, and also defeated Viborg in the first group stage game last week.

Speaking to reporters, as per Football.London, the Irons boss said: “I think that. We played really well against Tottenham, a really good Tottenham team and we played well against Chelsea, but just couldn’t quite get it over the line and things went against us completely that day.

“There’s not much we can do about that, but we are beginning to see the confidence and getting the new players a bit more integrated. Overall, the points are what we are judged on and we need to get the points, but I think our performances are improving at this time.”
