West Ham boss David Moyes heaps praise on players for dealing with 'difficult' Thursday-Sunday schedule... but warns rigours of the season could take their toll in final weeks of the campaign

West Ham boss David Moyes has been impressed with how his side have dealt with combining the rigours of the Premier League with European football this season.

The Hammers continued their memorable Europa League journey on Thursday night when they drew 1-1 in their quarter-final first leg with Lyon despite playing with 10 men for most of the match.

This is the first time the Hammers have experienced the added workload, but they are still in the hunt for a top-six finish in the Premier League ahead of this weekend's visit to Brentford.
