    West Ham boss David Moyes to Sky Sports: "Certainly the 30 minutes was as bad as I can remember any of my West Ham teams playing. It was more than 30 minutes but the first 30 minutes really was atrocious

    "We didn't play well, we didn't defend wel, which was was a big thing really.

    "We got we deserved and we just didn't really turn up.

    On whether playing in Europe on Thursday was a factor: "I make no excuses whatsoever nothing anything. We got praise for our performance in midweek and I praised the players for their performance but I'm certainly not not praising them for anything today

    "We were we were so so poor, ridiculously poor. To be a Premier League club you've got to have a bit about you and a lot of games that are difficult.

    "This was always gonna be a difficult game. Crystal Palace had done well last week and we had to make sure that we we got into the game and gave ourselves a chance we were so, so bad."

  2. Crystal Palace 5-2 West Ham: Key statspublished at 17:38 21 April

    • Crystal Palace’s 5-2 over West Ham was their joint-biggest win in a top-flight London derby (sixth by three goals), and the first time they’ve ever scored five goals against fellow London opposition in the top-flight.

    • Both of Crystal Palace’s victories by three goals in the Premier League this season have come under Oliver Glasner (3-0 v Burnley and 5-2 v West Ham). Prior to his arrival, the Eagles had only won one of their previous 71 games in the competition by three or more goals (5-1 v Leeds in April 2023).

    • West Ham have only won four of their 21 games across all competitions in 2024 (D8 L9). They have the fifth-lowest win percentage of any Premier League team this year (19%), behind only Burnley (13.3%), Sheffield United (13.3%), Nottingham Forest (15.8%) and Everton (18.8%).

    • In what was his 693rd game as a manager in the Premier League, this was the earliest a David Moyes side had ever been 4-0 down in a game in the competition (31st minute – Crystal Palace 4-0 West Ham).

    • With a goal and assist today, Crystal Palace’s Michael Olise is the youngest player to have been directly involved in 10+ goals in each of the last two Premier League campaigns (22y 131d – 13 in 2022-23 and 11 in 2023-24).

    • Michail Antonio made his 250th Premier League appearance for West Ham, becoming just the third player to reach this milestone for them in the competition, after Mark Noble (414) and Aaron Cresswell (291).

    Have your say banner

    Crystal Palace hit four goals in the first 31 minutes as they thrashed sorry West Ham at Selhurst Park.

    Michael Olise opened the scoring when he rose highest to convert Joachim Andersen's lofted ball into the box.

    Eberechi Eze then netted a superb bicycle kick from close range and Emerson Palmieri turned into his own net under pressure from Daniel Munoz for Palace's third of the afternoon.

    Olise turned provider, squaring the ball across goal for Jean-Philippe Mateta to sidefoot home.

    Michail Antonio got in behind his man and poked past home goalkeeper Dean Henderson for a Hammers consolation towards the end of the first half.

    But Oliver Glasner's side continued to dominate after the break and Mateta scored again for his ninth league goal of the campaign in an excellent performance from the Eagles.

    Tyrick Mitchell scored a late own goal, firing back towards goal without looking and Henderson was unable to stop it finding the back of the net as West Ham cut the deficit to three goals.

  4. Sutton's predictions: Crystal Palace v West Hampublished at 11:01 21 April

    Sutton's predictions graphic

    Chris Sutton is making predictions for all 380 Premier League matches again this season, against a variety of guests.

    For this weekend's games, he takes on singer-songwriter and Arsenal fan Sam Tompkins.

    Sutton's prediction: 2-1

    Who saw Crystal Palace beating Liverpool? Not me.

    It is going to take until next season for Eagles boss Oliver Glasner to really make his mark, but a result like that is a good start.

    I don't think it is a huge coincidence that the Eagles put in that performance when they had Eberechi Eze and Michael Olise in the team together. They carry much more of a threat with both of them fit, and it changes my whole way of thinking when I am predicting Palace games.

    Palace have a classy player in midfield too in Adam Wharton - I saw enough of him at my old club Blackburn to be impressed and I love the way he knits things together so effortlessly.

    Wharton is not the fastest but the first three yards are in his head and he just sees things quicker than most people. He can still improve some aspects of his game but he has only just turned 20 and looks like a shrewd piece of business by the Eagles.

    As for West Ham, well they have got an uphill struggle to stay in the Europa League on Thursday, and they have got a fight on their hands to qualify for Europe again next season.

    There is the danger the Hammers' season could fizzle out, although I don't think it will.

    Sam's prediction: 2-1

    I've got to back Palace here. My girlfriend's mum is a huge Palace supporter and if I don't say they will win, I will never be allowed back in the family home. They have also just beaten Liverpool so their morale should quite high.

  5. Glasner looks forward to Moyes reunionpublished at 13:57 20 April

    Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner is pleased to have the chance to stand opposite West Ham boss David Moyes once again, when the Eagles host the Hammers on Sunday (15:00 BST).

    Glasner last faced Moyes when Eintracht Frankfurt defeated West Ham in the semi-finals of the 2022 Europa League.

    "[He’s been] brilliant," said the Austrian in his news conference on Friday.

    "They were in the quarter-finals of the Europa League this season. They won the Conference League last season. The season before, they were in the semi-finals of the Europa League. I don't know their exact [league] positions in the last years, but yes, it's a very good team and he's a very experienced manager.

    "We had two very tough games against them when I was manager of Eintracht Frankfurt in the Europa League. Of course, I have very good memories because we won both games. But it was two years ago and one different team.

    "For us [Palace], it's important to look at what we want to do, to perform at our best level and to win the game. This is what we were talking about – and also not talking about winning, but talking about what we have to do, what we want to do. This was the headline of the whole week."

  6. 'For three years, West Ham were well and truly massive'published at 16:58 19 April

    West Ham fan's voice graphic

    Don't be upset because it's over, smile because it happened.

    Because for West Ham, it really did happen.

    Back in September 2021, we walked out against Dinamo Zagreb in our first group stage European campaign with absolutely zero expectations.

    Since then, we have won three groups, gone an entire European campaign unbeaten, reached three consecutive quarter-finals, two semi-finals and, of course, lifted European silverware.

    Not a single person - West Ham fan or not - saw any of that coming. If you did, I want to know what this weekend's lottery numbers are, please.

    The win over Sevilla, those nights in Lyon and Prague, last night against Leverkusen... the memories, oh the memories, will never fade and die, unlike our dreams, which also happened to come true on this wonderful, unbelievable and unthinkable European tour.

    It ended against a Leverkusen side that is arguably the best team in Europe right now. We could not beat them, but no one has this season.

    That's OK, because Thursday night at London Stadium felt different. The effort those players put in made sure it will go down as 'one of those nights under the lights' forever more. We didn't win but we didn't lose.

    All we ever demand from the players is effort. We got that last night - and then some.

    It was a truly magnificent performance that we must all be proud of. Most of the fans stayed after the final whistle to give the team a standing ovation. It was a mark of respect, acknowledgement and thanks for what that group, David Moyes included, has given us over the last three years.

    Hopefully our European love affair continues into a fourth season but, if it does not, we should look back on it with a smile.

    For three years West Ham were well and truly massive. And we made sure the rest of Europe knew about it.

  7. 'I think he’s done an incredible job' - Ward-Prowse praise for Moyespublished at 15:10 19 April

    Simon Stone

    West Ham boss David Moyes took exception to being asked about his future in the aftermath of last night's Europa League exit but it is a subject that will not go away.

    Moyes' contract expires at the end of the season and he has refused to say whether he will sign an extension.

    Players are bound to be asked about it, which is exactly what happened to midfielder James Ward-Prowse in the aftermath of the 1-1 draw with Bayer Leverkusen, a result that sent West Ham out 3-1 on aggregate.

    "I think he’s done an incredible job," said the England international.

    "All I can say from this season is that I’ve thoroughly enjoyed working with him.

    "We’re obviously unsure as to what’s going to happen but we’re focusing on making sure we finish the season as strongly as we can."

    Ward-Prowse is adamant the chatter will not be a distraction on the run-in as West Ham try to secure enough points to get them back into Europe next season.

    "As players you’re always so busy with the games and, for us, the next few will decide where we are next season so it’s important that we focus on them," Ward-Prowse added.

  8. 'We can't blame the ref'published at 13:08 19 April

    The was a lot of irritation about the performance of Spanish referee José María Sánchez Martínez at the London Stadium last night.

    West Ham striker Michail Antonio was particularly annoyed at decisions that did not go his way, which he felt contributed to the home side eventually bowing out of the Europa League at the hands of Bayer Leverkusen, 3-1 on aggregate after Thursday's 1-1 draw.

    However, midfielder James Ward-Prowse believes the Hammers have to look at themselves first.

    "The level of officiating is a little bit different compared to the Premier League," he said.

    "The leniency with fouls varies from time to time. Mick (Antonio) is strong and he’s up-front, so maybe there’s a certain image against him and he can't win fouls he should.

    "But that’s refereeing and that’s football. We’ve all been on the end of bad decisions.

    "Ultimately, we have to be honest and look at our performance and see that it wasn’t quite enough. The damage was done in the first leg."

    • West Ham have won just one of their past six Premier League games (D3 L2) while the Hammers have won just two of their nine league games immediately following a European midweek game this season (D4 L3).

  10. Moyes on chasing Europe, player fitness and Crystal Palacepublished at 10:41 19 April

    Phil Cartwright
    BBC Sport journalist

    West Ham manager David Moyes has been speaking to the media before Sunday's Premier League game at Crystal Palace.

    Here are the main headlines from his news conference:

    • Moyes heaped praise on his players for their performances across the two legs of their Europa League quarter-final tie with Bayer Leverkusen, despite their exit from the competition.

    • He said he "would love" to qualify for European competition again next season: "Last year we did it by winning a trophy - it wasn't our league position. Our league position this year has improved greatly and we've been around the top seven or eight all season. We know the level of the opponents who are challenging for those positions so it'll be tough. We've enjoyed it and if we can get back into Europe again, it would be great."

    • The fitness of defensive duo Nayef Aguerd and Konstantinos Mavropanos, midfielder Kalvin Phillips and goalkeeper Alphonse Areola will all be assessed before Sunday's game. George Earthy is following concussion protocols after the head injury he sustained against Fulham but "looks fine" and was at the club watching training earlier in the week.

    • Jarrod Bowen was "really close to not playing" against Leverkusen and had an injection to play in Thursday's second leg. His fitness will also be assessed on Friday.

    • On Palace: "Going there is always a difficult encounter. It's never an easy place to go to get a result. Oliver Glasner was manager of Eintracht Frankfurt when we played them [in the Europa League semi-final in 2021-22] and it's good to see him come over to the Premier League. He's a very good manager."

    • On the decision to scrap FA Cup replays from the first round onwards: "I think the football schedule is too full, I think there's too many games. Something has to give in football somewhere or you may find it's going to be very difficult. I'm not saying this was the thing that had to give, but somewhere along the line something will have to loosen up a little bit to give the players a bit more room."

    We asked you for your thoughts on West Ham's Europa League quarter-final defeat to Bayer Leverkusen.

    Here are some of your comments:

    Ian: I thought we gave it everything and the lack of squad depth showed as the players were exhausted. The referee was a mystery and it feels like he only wanted one team to progress. Credit to the team, they gave it everything but two goals down was too much to recover. Leverkusen are a good team and we pushed them all the way. I'm proud of my team!

    Harry: I have never seen West Ham play like they did in the first half. It was an incredible performance which goes to show what we could do if we had a better suited manager. Moyes messed it up in the second half with late substitutes once again and he took off Alvarez, who was too good to take off. Moyes has ruined our European hopes and I am beyond gutted.

    Yacob: We showed that when we attack, we can unsettle even the best. The tie was lost through over-defensive tactics last week and wasting the creativity of Paqueta, Kudus and Emerson. The Fornals and Benrahma departures have weakened us, but Moyes' substitutions were much less proactive and impactful than those Alonso chose to make.

    John: I cannot fault the effort of the players. If David Moyes played like that every week, we wouldn't be questioning him about getting another deal. However, last night showed his recruiting policy is nothing but criminal. A good starting XI but that is it. Our bench is poor and, when we ran out of steam, he couldn't bring anyone on to help. Thanks for the memories.

    David Moyes shakes hands with Xabi AlonsoImage source, Reuters

    West Ham manager David Moyes, speaking after Bayer Leverkusen knocked the Hammers out of the Europa League: "It was a brilliant team performance, I have to say over the two games.

    "We played a really good team and we had chances to be two or three up. I couldn't fault the players at all. If I was going out of Europe, I wanted to go out like that."

    Former Hammers defender Danny Gabbidon, speaking on the BBC's Football Daily podcast, added: "There will be a lot of West Ham fans coming away thinking: 'Why can't we play like this every week? Why does it take us being 2-0 down from the first leg, and almost having no other choice than to play that way, to get that kind of first-half performance?'

    "They've shown in the first half that they're capable of playing against one of the best teams in Europe and making them look fairly ordinary, playing high-tempo, aggressive, on-the-front-foot football. They caused Leverkusen a lot of problems.

    "At half-time, Xabi had a lot of work to do. He had to change personnel and the formation, and that brought them a little more control.

    "As an ex-West Ham player, I would like to see this team play a little bit more like we saw in that first half."

  13. Can West Ham go again?published at 22:56 18 April

    Simon Stone
    Chief football news reporter

    West Ham looked like a spent force midway through their Europa League quarter-final defeat by Bayer Leverkusen.

    David Moyes did not have enough players available to make an impact and some of those he did have, including Jarrod Bowen, were clearly lacking match sharpness.

    Defeat to Bayer Leverkusen in itself is not a major problem.

    West Ham acquitted themselves well against the unbeaten new German champions.

    But what happens now?

    They have five games left, including some biggies against Liverpool, Chelsea and Manchester City. Positive results can send fans into the summer in a positive mood.

    But defeats bring the risk of sliding further down the table than their present eighth and that could be seen as under-achievement.

    Moyes and his players will not want that. But do they have the strength to go again?

  14. 'We felt like we deserved more' - Antoniopublished at 22:54 18 April

    West Ham goalscorer Michail Antonio to TNT Sports: "Obviously we are disappointed. Last week we gave them a bit too much respect, but this week we came out and showed them what we can do.

    "I felt like I did not get a decision all game. I felt a bit frustrated. We felt like we deserved more. But it's football, sometimes the decisions don't go your way. We move on, and build on that and try to get into the Europa League next year.

    "We put in a good performance and we had quite a few chances. Obviously they are a quality team."

    On the decisions that went against him: "It does not feel like you are playing against 11 men, it feels like you are playing against 13 or 14 including the two linos.

    "You just have to keep pushing and try and make the decisions go your way. And they just were not. We had to keep playing our way and keep being professional.

    "We are very proud of ourselves. To achieve what we have achieved over the last four years is incredible. Four back-to-back years in European quarter-finals I would never have thought that. We were a yoyo team, into Europe, then fighting for relegation."

  15. West Ham 1-1 Bayer Leverkusen ( 1-3 on aggregate): Key statspublished at 22:48 18 April

    • Michail Antonio has now scored nine goals in European competition (excluding qualifiers) for West Ham, which is the joint-most of any Hammers player in their history – level with Jarrod Bowen. Antonio’s goal was also his 80th for the club across all competitions.

    • Bowen has now been directly involved in 28 goals across all competitions for the club this season (19 goals, nine assists). He has only been involved in more for the Hammers in 2021-22, when he recorded 29 involvements with 18 goals and11 assists.

    • Antonio's opener at 12 minutes and 47 seconds was the earliest goal Bayer Leverkusen have conceded in the Europa League this season.
