David Moyes calls West Ham's 4-0 thrashing by Brighton 'one of worst performances' from his second stint at the club... as the Hammers boss reveals he 'understands' chants from fans calling for him to be sacked

David Moyes admitted West Ham let themselves down as they slumped to an alarming 4-0 defeat at Brighton.

The Hammers are now winless in 11 away matches in the Premier League and still perilously close to the relegation zone after a feeble display.

It was another case of the curse of Brighton for West Ham - Moyes' side have never beaten the Seagulls in the Premier League and left the Amex Stadium empty-handed, yet again, at the 12th attempt.

But this was far from unlucky. A penalty from Alexis Mac Allister, tap-ins for Joel Veltman and Kaoru Mitoma and a late strike from Danny Welbeck inflicted West Ham's heaviest defeat since a 5-0 home drubbing by Manchester City in August 2019.
