Proof of how far West Ham United have come in 12 months is that manager David Moyes was disappointed with his side’s performance in a 2-0 win over Leeds United that sent them into fifth place in the Premier League on Monday.
First-half goals by Jesse Lingard and Craig Dawson secured the points for West Ham who are now two points behind fourth-placed Chelsea with a game in hand.
Leeds had two goals disallowed before West Ham scored and captain Declan Rice says they had “won ugly”.
Moyes adds: “We were resilient, we didn’t play well. Not a good performance by our standards. The players are disappointed.
“Leeds United do a lot to you and make it difficult to play. We had a bit of control but I didn't enjoy it.”
