WEST HAM manager David Moyes felt his side paid the price for failing to be more clinical in front of goal in this keenly fought game against Brighton at the London stadium.

“We need to be more clinical and win the games easier. We had two or three big chances and did not take them,” said Moyes, who felt his side did not capitalise on a good start.

The home side were ahead in four minutes, when Tomas Soucek rose to head in a corner from Pablo Fornals.
