West Ham boss Moyes upset with 'tenure' questions after Euro exit

West Ham boss David Moyes was unimpressed by a reporter asking if his job was coming to an end after their Europa League exit.

A 1-1 draw with Bayer Leverkusen saw West Ham eliminated at the quarterfinal stage.

Moyes, who was unhappy with the officiating on the night, also took issue with one reporter's question.

Reporter: "If this is the end of your tenure at the end of the season, how do you reflect on..."

Moyes: "Sorry, I didn't get that question."

Media officer: "We are not focusing on the end of tenures."

Moyes: "We have just played in a third quarter-final there."

Reporter: "I was reflecting on the three years you have had in Europe and the moments you have given these fans..."

Moyes: "Better question. We have been in three quarter-finals, won two and were narrowly close tonight. The supporters have been treated to big nights against Alkmaar and Sevilla. Leverkusen are a Champions League team and play that way. We have three fabulous years and we are hoping we can make it four."
