West Ham boss David Moyes admits he was disappointed with his side's finishing

David Moyes has called for West Ham to come together as a club after the away fans protested against the board and mocked their own players at Watford.

On his Hammers bow, Moyes' team were seen off by goals from Will Hughes (11) and Richarlison (64) as Watford boss Marco Silva - heavily linked with the Everton job - further enhanced his reputation.

Cries of "you're not fit to wear the shirt" were sung from a disgruntled away end, who have seen their team lose their last four games and remain in the relegation zone.

When asked about the fans' frustrations, Moyes said: "I don't know the history - all I can say, I'm really thankful for the support of me.

"We need a united club. The supporters will know the past. I said to the players, it's tough to play when the crowd is like that. A goal can make a difference."

Watford 2 -0 West Ham

Despite the defeat, there was cause for hope for Moyes as his team had six shots on target but a mixture of wayward finishing and two brilliant stops from Heurelho Gomes blunted their progress.

However, following going down to 2-0, West Ham created little and Moyes was disappointed by the quality shown by some of his players.

"I found out today, I was only going to find out what they were like when I took training and in the game," Moyes said.

"The better team won the game, I won't say different, but we had chances to change the outcome of the game.

"We have got to try and find a way of winning, we will try and find a way.

"The most important thing was to be in the game and when we conceded the second that went. We need to learn how to stay in games."
