It was a season that took West Ham across Europe and while they ultimately fell short in their quest for continental glory, Hammers fans won’t forget the journey in a hurry. A small squad was increasingly stretched as the season went on, particularly in defence, but David Moyes led his side to the Europa League semi-finals and there are more away days to look forward to after a seventh-placed finish in the Premier League. There will be plenty regret about that Eintracht Frankfurt defeat, but also significant pride as the club reflect over the summer.
West Ham boss David Moyes warned his players he will not accept a repeat of a dismal second-half performance which cost the club a Europa League return. The Hammers, who suffered semi-final heartbreak in the continental competition just over two weeks ago, were on course to snatch sixth position from Manchester United after Michail Antonio put them ahead against Brighton. Moyes’ must be content with a place in the Europa Conference League next term following the costly capitulation, much to the annoyance of their disgruntled manager.
Moyes was absolutely spitting feathers at his West Ham players after they completely fluffed their lines in the race to qualify for the Europa League
