David Moyes sends passionate West Ham plea ahead of crunch Everton clash after Wolves defeat

West Ham United manager David Moyes has called on his side’s supporters to give his players what they have given him during his second spell at the club.

A 1-0 defeat to Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday, courtesy of Daniel Podence’s second half goal, saw the Hammers drop into the relegation zone for the first time in more than three months.

It leaves them 18th in the table after picking up just one point from a possible 21 in their last seven matches, heading into a must-win clash against 19th placed Everton at the London Stadium next Saturday.

Amid the pressure currently on Moyes, he has called for the Hammers’ supporters to repay his side for the success of the previous two seasons, which have included back-to-back top seven finishes and reaching the Europa League’s semi-finals.

“I think what we’ve given West Ham supporters in the last few years, I hope they’ll give us back when we’re in a difficult period,” said Moyes.

“They gave us back everything the players and the staff have given the club in the last couple of years, I am sure that will help us because you always want the backing of your home support mainly.

“We’ve always had it, so let’s hope that continues.”
