MOYES: NO PANIC

was to stay out of the bottom three. We have three games. In the main, our form here has been pretty good.

“I’m hoping one of those last two home games will turn into points, and we also go to Leicester. If we win one of those, I think we’ll be OK.”

West Ham were woeful and booed off after putting up little fight against City.

Leroy Sane’s strike and

Pablo Zabaleta’s own goal put Pep Guardiola’s recordchasing title winners 2-0 up inside 27 minutes.

And after Aaron Cresswell replied with a stunning free-kick, Gabriel Jesus and Fernandinho added second-half goals for City.

Their margin of victory could have been much bigger but the four goals took them to 102 for the season, one fewer than Chelsea’s record tally from 2009/10. West Ham now have shipped 67 goals giving them the worst defensive record in the league.

Moyes said: “They were excellent and we didn’t defend as well as we have done against the other big teams this season: filling the box, stopping things.”

Moyes’ unhappiness was summed by a triple substitution just after Fernandinho made it 4-1.

Edimilson Fernandes, Manuel Lanzini (left) and Patrice Evra were hooked and replaced by Joao Mario, Javier Hernandez and Arthur Masuaku.

The decision to replace Lanzini, who was dispossessed just before Fernandinho struck, was jeered but Moyes said: “Everyone should look at the fourth goal and maybe they’ll see why. Manu had a great chance to keep the ball for that goal.”
