Fanatical Moyes During his tenure, he developed a keen habit of abandoning clichés. West Ham One more dropped tonight.
In the record-breaking season last year, there was a theory that because there were no supporters in the stands, especially in the stands, the Hammers performed well to a large extent. London Stadium.
This week Moyes challenged his players and the returning crowd to prove that the theorists were wrong, and they did so in a surprisingly consistent way. Ayoze Perez’s red card certainly helped West Ham United’s career, but even before that, they became more acute and hungry driven by the noisy crowd. As West Ham United won two wins and two losses this season, Leicester City’s game against the 10 players did not feel the decisive factor.
The Scottish manager wants those who return to see a team that is unrecognizable from the team that played last time in front of a full London stadium, and a team let them leave their seats. Moyes has no better goal than the opener here to summarize what he has brought to East London. Aggressive game, kicking the ball on the front foot, and quickly pounced from Jamie Vardy’s loose touch, then flashed past and found the corner.
Since moving here from Upton Park, the team and the crowd have fed each other on that night that has been lacking. The London Stadium does feel like home tonight.
In the past few years, a night that many people feared that it would go bad ended with the slogan “We are the best in the league”, and Moyes was serenaded by the remaining group of supporters while doing post-match media work.
“This is a super night for us,” Moyes said. “The team played very well. Sending changed the game and we did a lot of good things.
“It reminds me of Upton Park tonight. It’s great.”
The eight goals in the two games at the beginning of the season also highlighted that this side is not a flash in the pan. Many people frowned when Moyes said he wanted to surpass last season’s record-setting Premier League points and sixth place, especially considering that West Ham is the only team without a permanent contract so far this summer. Few people now question this ambition. If there are new faces next week, then given Moyes’ hesitation and record on the market, this team will only improve.
West Ham fans often leave this part of East London with false memories. Here, they leave with smiles, cheers and hope for the upcoming season.
