Moyes calls for consistency

Goals from Joao Mario and Mark Noble secured a routine win for the 'Hammers', who now look unlikely to drop through the relegation trapdoor.

Speaking to 'Sky Sports' following the game, Moyes urged his side to show more consistency in their performances.

"Winning always feels good and we've needed to win a couple of games so the boys did a really good job today getting that result," he explained.

"We've just played Chelsea, Arsenal and Man City in a row which is never easy and we conceded some goals so to get a clean sheet and three points today is really good.

"I think these players are capable of winning games like this and winning other games. What they've got to do is do it across a consistent basis.

"I don't think we have a bad team, but what we have to do is defend better if we're going to give ourselves a chance and we did that today. I thought on another day we would have been more clinical and scored more goals."

Whilst it is still mathematically possible for West Ham to go down, Moyes admits that he is starting to look up the table, rather than down.

"It's not done completely yet but you'd have to say it would take a lot for the other teams to get us," he admitted.

"I'm actually now thinking how many points can we get and where can we finish in the league table. I'm thinking can we get closer to the middle part of the table... We'll try and win more points in the home games to come.

"You take a little bit of a risk when you come to any club that is in the bottom three and the only person who gets the blame for it is the manager. If you don't stay up, the manager seems to get in trouble. I don't think that's right but at the moment, it looks like we're in a good place and hopefully pick up more points."
