West Ham Win Again!

For one month now, West Ham Utd have not tasted defeat home or away in the Premier League and Europa League. They are “on a purple patch”, BBC wrote in their match report from the Hammers’ latest 2-1 away win over Spurs, but it was not only luck, the Irons put in a resilient, organised display in North London and again came from behind to snatch all the points from the jaws of defeat after having conceded early on in the 11th minute. Two second half goals from Jarrod Bowen and James Ward-Prowse meant that West Ham have won 10 points from losing positions in the Premier League this season. Only Brighton (11) and Liverpool (15) have recovered more.
“I think it is a huge win to come here and win against this side,” Moyes told BBC Radio 5 Live.
“I’m pleased with how we were resilient and diligent in our work, organised, defensively structured and we were always a threat as well.”
West Ham have won five of their past six fixtures across all competitions while Tottenham suffered their fourth defeat in five and have dropped points from a winning position for a fifth consecutive game.
West Ham last defeat was at Brentford away (2-3) on 4 November, but since that game the Hammers have won five times (Olympiakos, Nottingham Forest, Burnley, Backa Topola and Spurs) and drawn one match (against Crystal Palace last weekend).
On the back of these fine run of results – some of them snatched with late winning goals in the process – the east Londoners now will play an other derby and are hosted by Fulham next Sunday.
I am looking much forward to this game because I will be in the away end at Craven Cottage on Sunday!
Then Freiburg come to the London Stadium for the final game of the Europa League group stages next Wednesday, and some days before Christmas the Hammers have to travel to Liverpool for the quarter finals of the League Cup after having eliminated Arsenal in the last round of this competition.
Come on you Ironsssssss!!!
