AN ACTION-PACKED derby game at the London Stadium on Saturday ended with new West Ham boss David Moyes securing his first victory, while Chelsea manager Antonio Conte conceded the Premier League after their fourth defeat in 16 games.
A happy Moyes explained how his side had taken confidence from their spirited performance against Manchester City last Sunday, which saw the Hammers lose out narrowly to the league leaders.
“We had a good plan and organisation,“ said Moyes, who once again deployed Marko Arnautovic and Michel Antonio in free-running roles up front to stretch the Chelsea rearguard. A similar tactic had been used against City. “We tried to fill the middle of the pitch with power and pace.”
