West Ham United boss Slaven Bilic has joked that Saturday's win at Manchester City left him as happy as a man in a 'pub full of girls'.

The Hammers pulled off arguably the shock result of the Premier League season so far by ending the high-flying Sky Blues' 100% start to the campaign with a 2-1 victory at Eastlands.

Bilic has already masterminded wins at Arsenal and Liverpool so far, but the Croat says that their result at the weekend takes pride of place in the hat-trick of unlikely scalps.

"Of course I like it when we are winning. Of course it is brilliant! It is like when you come to a pub that is full of girls! You will like it!," he is quoted as saying by the Manchester Evening News.

"Sometimes playing away makes you more organised, not losing your shape, no matter who you play away. Of course, if you are playing a team like City, it's up to them, because there is so much class on the pitch.

"It's different, with the greatest respect to Arsenal and Liverpool. They don't miss a ball, and their passes are not square passes, their passes are here and here behind so the quality is unbelievable."

The Irons host Norwich City at Upton Park next Saturday.
