West Ham dominated Watford and could have scored more - Bilic

Slaven Bilic was delighted with the performance of his West Ham United side in Wednesday night's 3-1 win over Watford.

An early finish from Andy Carroll plus penalties either side of half-time from captain Mark Noble saw off the challenge of the Hornets and according to Bilic, it could have been a much bigger margin if his players were more efficient in the final third.

"First of all I'm really pleased because we played some good football. We dominated from the start and we deserved to win," said the Hammers boss.

"It was only bad finishing or good saves by (Heurelho) Gomes that we didn't score any more. It wasn't that we took the mick in front of goal.

"We deserved to win but we should have scored more goals."

The win saw West Ham remain sixth on the table where they sit just four points behind fourth-placed Arsenal.
