West Ham's dismal season plumbed new depths as former boss Bilic returned to the London Stadium with a second-string West Brom side and knocked them out of the FA Cup. Moyes had picked virtually his strongest available team but they had no answer to Conor Townsend's ninthminut­e strike, even though West Brom played the final 20 minutes with 10 men after Semi Ajayi was sent off.

Two years ago Moyes replaced Bilic as Hammers manager and led them to survival, but the Scot has inherited arguablyan­evenworses­ituation in his second spell in charge following Manuel Pellegrini's sacking last month.

But Bilic insisted: "David can do it. The players have to do it. They have done it before and they have to do it now.

"Now what is very important is the crowd recognise the situation, be behind the team and be behind the club."
