Manchester City 1-2 West Ham: Pellegrini Thoughts

But they disappointed once again as they lost 2-1 against West Ham United.

City won their opening five matches but have suffered back-to-back defeats by Juventus and the Hammers this week. “Thanks for all the support, the fans were unbelievable!”

“His first game was really good for us, not only for that fantastic sprint for the goal but also because of his composure, his linking play but also his work rate”.

Moreover, West Ham’s center-back Winston Reid was instrumental in helping his side clinch their fourth win of the season as he made the most clearances during the match.

Next up for Moses and his teammates is a home clash against Norwich City next Saturday.

Manchester City fell 2-1 at the Etihad to West Ham United on Saturday.

“It is a surprise to us as well that we have beaten Liverpool, Arsenal and Man City”, said the 47-year-old Croatian.

“We want to win as many cups as possible”.

This was the first points that City have dropped this season and the first goals they have conceded in the Premier League.

Unsurprisingly, they’re favourites ahead of this one, with bet365 offering 1/4 on a home win for Manuel Pellegrini’s side.

Unfortunately for City, club captain Vincent Kompany will be out against West Ham with a calf injury suffered in their Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) Champions League loss against Juventus, but forward Sergio Agüero will be available, according to BBC Sport.

It doubled the lead in the 31st when striker Diafra Sakho turned the ball in after a goalmouth scramble from a corner.

“We never believed, because we won five games, we were champions of the Premier League“, said Pellegrini. “We had a lot of chances to score”.

The Belgian said he was still finding his feet and that he could only improve as a player surrounded by a stellar cast at City.

And midfielder Payet, who has starred in the Hammers’ attack with three goals so far this term, says manager Slaven Bilic has solved their early-season defensive wobbles. The only thing we have to do is score goals and then obviously we can win that game.
