Craig Dawson was surely one of the 調印s of the season, while the 決定/判定勝ち(する) to bring in 足緒 Lingard on 貸付金 from Manchester 部隊d 証明するd a masterstroke. But above anything else, 長,率いる coach David Moyes should be the toast of West Ham as European football arrives.


The Scot was supposed to be a 破産した/(警察が)手入れするd 紅潮/摘発する; a 管理の has-been. Truth be told, West Ham fans were not 納得させるd when he arrived for a second (一定の)期間 in 告発(する),告訴(する)/料金 to 取って代わる Manuel Pellegrini in December 2019.

There will be a few happily scoffing some humble pie.

A sixth-placed finish, a 記録,記録的な/記録する number of 首相 League points and European football - all beyond the 支持者s' wildest 期待s.

'It's a 抱擁する 業績/成就 from where we (機の)カム from, one of the biggest steps we've ever made - a 広大な/多数の/重要な credit to the players,' said Moyes (権利).

Hopefully Moyes finds time to pat himself on the 支援する, too. He 操るd it all.

Against Southampton, his team never really 攻撃する,衝突する 最高の,を越す gear.

They didn't need to, in all honesty. Yet, that's a 示す of how Moyes has transformed a club who looked 運命にあるd for relegation into one who are no longer 飛行機で行くing by the seat of their pants.

They are organised, have a 計画(する) - a team that would 明確に run through brick 塀で囲むs for their 経営者/支配人.

にもかかわらず the 慰安 of it all, Moyes did not 割れ目 a smile until the 86th minute, when Rice put the 大打撃を与えるs 3-0 ahead.

He need not have been so moody. West Ham were never going to let this slip.

Had Southampton 今後 Takumi Minamino's dinked 成果/努力 not bounced インチs past the far 地位,任命する then, perhaps, this game could have reached a different 結論. But then, like they have done for most of the season, West Ham clicked.

Pablo Fornals received the adulation, but it was Jarrod Bowen who deserved the credit as he ripped through Southampton in the 30th minute, before 抑えるのをやめるing a low 発射 that Alex McCarthy could only parry, leaving his Spanish team-mate the simplest of 仕事s.

You sensed the 救済 around the London Stadium.

That was it. Party time. The East End of London certainly know how to celebrate ― as the 残り/休憩(する) of Europe will discover very soon.??
