Tottenham midfielder Lucas on West Ham defeat: We're missing something

Tottenham midfielder Lucas Moura had no complaints after defeat at West Ham.

Lucas struck for Spurs, but not before West Ham had jumped to a 2-1 lead.

The Brazilian later remarked: "It's disappointing because I think we played well and we lost because of our mistakes. We worked hard and we showed a good effort. We just need to think now about the next game.

"We created chances to score. We had opportunities to win the game. We tried to attack and always looking for the goal but it wasn't possible. Next game we need to do better.

"I think they [Gareth Bale and Matt Doherty] did well. We tried everything and we had opportunities to score. We need to do better. The two goals we conceded we cannot concede goals like this. We need to learn from our mistakes.

"It's missing something. But we need to look forward. There are a lot of games to play. We need to improve."
