David Moyes: 'Michail Antonio contributed little against Newcastle United'

David Moyes publicly criticises Michail Antonio for his lacklustre performance in West Ham United's 3-2 home defeat to Newcastle United on Saturday afternoon.

David Moyes has criticised Michail Antonio for his lacklustre performance in West Ham United's 3-2 home defeat to Newcastle United on Saturday afternoon.

The 27-year-old was largely ineffective throughout the Premier League game against the struggling Magpies and was replaced by Andy Carroll in the 59th minute.

Antonio joined West Ham from Nottingham Forest in 2015 and established himself as one of his team's most important players, but injuries and lack of form have impacted on the winger this season.

Speaking after the game, Moyes told reporters: "[Antonio] just never seemed to get a run in and he's an important player for us.

"I agree, we said to him at half time, 'look, if you're not gonna show us then we're going to have to do something about it'.

"I hoped he would find a way of getting a run in, but he never at any time gave us anything which we could see would be helping us."

The defeat to Newcastle saw West Ham slip to 17th in the table, one point above the dropzone.
