West Ham boss Allardyce left disappointed with Southampton defeat

West Ham United boss Sam Allardyce was left disappointed with their 3-1 defeat at home to Southampton.

Allardyce's side were not at the races once again as they looked for back-to-back league wins.

"We weren't good enough," Allardyce said.

"Southampton taught us a lesson, we weren't sharp enough and didn't retain the ball as well as they did, close down as well as they did and gifted them two goals.

"As much as they were in control and on top of the game, we've lost two very stupid goals from set-pieces."
