Manager Hails Comeback Victory as a Boost for Confidence and Club Ambitions
David Moyes believes West Ham’s dramatic comeback win over Tottenham can be a turning point for the club this season, boosting both team morale and supporter confidence. The Hammers triumphed 2-1 in north London, with goals from Jarrod Bowen and James Ward-Prowse helping them come from behind against their rivals.
Despite Tottenham dominating early on, West Ham showed resilience, soaking up pressure before turning the match in their favour. The victory sees the Hammers move within three points of Spurs, continuing their strong form on the road this season. Only Manchester City and Arsenal have earned more points away from home than West Ham in the Premier League so far.
Moyes admitted that West Ham has traditionally struggled against the top teams away from home, but he believes this win could prove pivotal in their development. “I think it was a big moment for our supporters,” Moyes said. “They want to see us challenging the big teams, and we want to do that too. Tottenham are one of the best teams in the league right now, so for us to come here and win is a massive statement.”
He continued: “Hopefully, this gives our players more confidence and belief, and our supporters too. We have a really strong team, we’re climbing the league, and doing well in Europe – let’s keep it going.”
The victory over Tottenham represents a significant milestone in West Ham’s quest to challenge the league’s top sides and build momentum for the remainder of the season.
