David Moyes targeted a return to Europe for West Ham after they bounced back from their Thursday night heartbreak and reignited the race for the Premier League top six with a thumping 4-0 win at Norwich. The Hammers arrived at Carrow Road licking their wounds after their painful Europa League semi-final defeat by Eintracht Frankfurt three days earlier.
David Moyes said: “I thought the team started very well and gave us a decent platform to go and work from. To say Thursday was a big blow wouldn’t do it justice, how we feel. So to get us back today with that result was great credit to the players. We could’ve played better, could’ve scored more goals. But we got the job done and got three good points. Let’s be fair, we’ve got Manchester City and Brighton to play, and Brighton have just beaten Manchester United, so that’s why I thought today was really important. But we’re back in it, back in there fighting and trying to be sixth or seventh with a bit of luck, and hopefully we can be back in Europe.”
