# West Ham: Fans praise David Moyes after win against Bournemouth

**David Moyes enjoyed the perfect start to his second spell as manager of West Ham United on New Year’s Day, with his team thumping AFC Bournemouth 4-0 at the London Stadium.**

A brace from Mark Noble and goals from Sebastien Haller and Felipe Anderson were enough to seal the points for the east London outfit, who moved two clear of the Cherries ([BBC Sport](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/premier-league/table)).

Moyes, of course, recently replaced Manuel Pellegrini in the Hammers dugout and made an instant impact to halt what had been a run of awful form.

Indeed, under the Chilean, the Irons had lost nine Premier League matches in 12 ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/west-ham-united/spielplan/verein/379)) and they were plummeting down the table like a stone.

It is just a start for Moyes, but it has certainly got the fans smiling again and many of them had plenty of praise for the ex-Everton boss after the game.

Here is what some had to say about him on Twitter…

> Because it’s Moyes he might not get the credit he deserves from all of us, I’m not a fan of his appointment whatsoever but he gave the fans something today and I applaud👏🏽 him for it. Understands the best way to get our support is through endeavour, fair play to him great result! [pic.twitter.com/GRVNhyiRwc](https://t.co/GRVNhyiRwc)

> Really enjoyed the game today. The football was a lot better than we saw under Pellegrini. More energetic less pedestrian.

> Credit where it is due to Moyes after tonight’s win against Bournemouth – the nature of this victory and performance was thoroughly unexpected by everyone; especially given the fact he has only been in charge a couple of days. Work rate and desire superb throughout from everyone
