​Brentford boss Frank: West Ham win our best Prem performance

Brentford's win against West Ham United was their best performance in the Premier League this season.

That is according to their manager Thomas Frank, who was delighted after the contest.

The Bees defeated David Moyes' Champions League chasing Hammers 2-0 in a London derby at the weekend.

"It was close to being a complete performance," Frank said post-game.

"I think this is the first time in the Premier League when we have more or less controlled the game from minute one to minute 90.

"Winning 2-0 against a very good side like West Ham in that way, and restricting them to five shots in the whole game, that's 'wow' for me.

"It was very, very pleasing, especially the way we did it today. I really admire what David Moyes and his coaching team have done this season at West Ham – very, very impressive.

"So, that we were able to do that today means that we have obviously hit a very high level of performance.

"We played with confidence, big discipline and determination, and if you can do that then there's a good chance you can win.

"It's a very proud feeling, because the performance was in some ways even more complete than the Chelsea one [4-1 Brentford win].

"The way we did it today just shows how far we've come."
