'It was a shock when it happened before the Hull game': West Ham boss David Moyes speaks out over testing positive for Covid-19 after returning to training this week following four matches away from the dugout

David Moyes has spoken for the first time since testing positive for coronavirus and says he's feeling 'much better' after returning to training.

The West Ham manager contracted the virus just hours before the Hammers' third round Carabao Cup tie against Hull City, alongside first-team players Issa Diop and Josh Cullen.

Moyes handed over the reigns on matchday to his assistant Alan Irvine and his side were extremely successful in his absence, beating Wolves 4-0 and Leicester 3-0, and Moyes admitted the players and backroom staff have done 'really well' in his absence.
