David Moyes
Was that performance as good as against Liverpool?
Technically we can play much better than we did in the first half, we didn’t play well enough in the first half today. I thought the second half we improved greatly and that gave us a real chance but I was patching up the team at different times where we picked up a few injuries. We played Brighton midweek and they had a similar situation, when they lost three players with injury in that game, so it’s a strange and difficult time for all the Premier League teams with the quantity of games at the moment.
That was Arthur’s first Premier League goal – did he mean it?
It was a great cross. You have to get the ball in the box and you have to try to do it and we’ve all seen other types of goals from crosses where it has dipped over the goalkeeper in the back post and different things.cSo look, it was I think at the time we have to say it is a bit of a lucky goal but in midweek, we didn’t get a goal to make it 2-0 when VAR went against us, which for the life of me I cannot see how that was ruled out. You have take what you get in football and today we got that goal to win 3-2.
How bad are the injuries to Johnson and Zouma, will you need to go into the market in January?
Well, January is far away. We have a game next week before we get to January. I’m just hoping they are okay, I don’t know how bad Kurt is. Ben looked as if he has pulled his hamstring a little bit. I need to get players back, Ryan Frederick’s needs to come back, Aaron Cresswell and as you well know we don’t have Angelo Ogbonna for a while because of his ACL.
