West Ham United boss David Moyes paid tribute to the home support for their 3-1 win over Southampton.

It marked the best day of Moyes' return as manager.

He said,"We've been the bottom three for a few weeks and with the fixtures we had there was always a chance we would be, I always thought that once we got those fixtures out of the way, we would have a better chance of winning games.

"We've taken the first one today and we've got to take all of the other opportunities that are coming our way.

"The crowd were great. They were right behind the team and they always have been. The supporters have been great since I've been here and we need them at the moment. So, thanks for their support today and we're going to need them in the coming weeks as well."
