Yesterday afternoon at the London Stadium, West Ham United was defeated 3-1 by Manchester City.
Overall, West Ham had a respectable day at work; Man City will be significantly superior to practically every Premier League opponent they face this year.
Although there were a few things that David Moyes would not have liked, he would have been generally pleased with how the Hammers played.
A clear error by Nayef Aguerd resulted in Man City’s equalizer.
Additionally, Moyes was obviously dissatisfied with the Moroccan’s contribution to Bernardo Silva’s goal.
against blame for West Ham’s loss against Manchester City is Aguerd
After yesterday’s game at the London Stadium, Moyes spoke with reporters.
As reported by WHUFC.com, the Scot quietly placed the blame for the 3-1 loss on Aguerd.
“The second goal left me feeling worse. The second goal was subpar in my opinion, but overall I was happy with the players’ efforts and how they played.
These errors seem to be made by Aguerd far too frequently.
It was truly awful how he allowed Bernardo to get the ball yesterday by letting it float over his head.
If the 27-year-old wants to keep his spot in the Hammers starting lineup, he needs to get himself together quickly.
But after his yesterday gaffe, I believe Moyes should move him to the bench. It’s not like it was a singular occasion either; he has made mistakes throughout the season.
We can only hope that he changes his mind.
