Michail Antonio: I’d rather not score if West Ham could win

The Hammers confirmed on Monday evening that a total of 10 supporters were ejected from the stadium during the 4-2 Premier League defeat with almost 50 complaints made over standing in seated areas and anti-social behaviour.

Troy Deeney claimed West Ham star Dimitri Payet was the inspiration for Watford’s unbelievable comeback at the London Stadium – accusing the mercurial Frenchman of “trying to mug us off” with an outrageous assist.

The 33rd-minute goal gave West Ham a 2-0 lead, but it was all Watford from there, with the visitors storming back for a 4-2 win.

Odion Ighalo has said he is not perturbed about his inability to score goals for his English Premier League side, Watford FC.

“The first one came from a very predictable attack that we should have at least put them in a situation that they have to do something better to hurt us and that happened already twice in the first ten minutes when we had five chances, they had two chances”.

The Hammers moved to the venue at the start of the season, but there have been unsavoury incidents involving their fans at the past three matches.

West Ham was known for having an organized group of hostile supporters called the “Inter City Firm”, which was active mostly in the ’70s and ’80s and at away games.

In addition, we will continue to review CCTV footage and take retrospective action where necessary.

West Ham grabbed a two-goal lead in the first half, with Michail Antonio heading in from two Dimitri Payet deliveries – the second a remarkable rabona cross from the Frenchman and it all looked like plain sailing for the hosts.

“This includes police, stadium landlord and operator LS185, who are responsible for appointing and managing stewards and security, to ensure we eradicate such incidents moving forward”.

“Our policy on this behaviour remains one of zero tolerance and we will work with the police and other stakeholders to identify the individuals involved”, an official statement read.

West Ham’s collapse allowed new Watford manager Walter Mazzarri to claim his first win of the campaign.
