For David Moyes, a bitter evening on his old stomping ground ended with a sour taste. Not that he could have any complaints, with his West Ham side turning in a barely lukewarm performance that deservedly ended with Bristol City advancing to the FA Cup fourth round at their expense. West Ham never truly recovered from Tommy Conway’s early strike after an error by Konstantinos Mavropanos and Saïd Benrahma’s straight red card, for a petulant kick, a few minutes into the second half ensured a forgettable trip and a tempestuous affair went from bad to worse.

This was an uncomfortable night for the West Ham manager that also exposed the apparent chasm between the quality of his missing star performers – Lucas Paqueta, Jarrod Bowen, Mohammed Kudus and Michail Antonio were among those absent – and those on the periphery. Simple passes went awry and Moyes went ballistic when Tomas Soucek was penalised for a foul throw as full time approached. No wonder Moyes wants to strengthen before the transfer deadline. By then it is quite feasible that none of West Ham’s front three here will still be at the club, with Danny Ings, Maxwel Cornet and Benrahma all deemed dispensable assets.
