If you need an admission that David Sullivan's ownership has a ceiling, it's David Moyes. It was proof the first time and it is again even more so the second time.

Joint bottom, one point from the last possible 21, and no win in the league since October.

West Ham United’s 2022/23 Premier League season started with a whimper today, as Manchester City walked out very comfortable winners at the London Stadium.

vs Brentford

• Sunday, 10th April 2022

West Ham put in their worst performance of the season this Sunday, beaten easily by Brentford 2-0.

vs Lyon

• Thursday, 7th April 2022

West Ham will go to France level in the tie after a 1-1 draw at home with Lyon in the first leg of this Europa League Quarter-Final. The draw ended up a good result after an Aaron Cresswell red card just before half-time completely changed the complexion of the match.

vs Seville

• Thursday, 17th March 2022

Hold onto these moments, these nights, they don’t come about often. As extra time ended, it was West Ham who had clinched the tie, another dramatic Andriy Yarmolenko giving The Hammers the 2-0 win, the 2-1 aggregate victory and their route to the quarter finals of the Europa League.

vs Kidderminster Harriers

• Saturday, 5th February 2022

It was drama at the last again this week for West Ham United, but this time in their favour as a 91st minute Declan Rice goal saved their blushes to force this Fourth Round FA Cup fixture into extra-time, before a 121st minute Jarrod Bowen winner delivered the cruellest of killing blows to non-league Kidderminster Harriers.
