West Ham boss Moyes warns Man Utd winger Antony: Though I won't throw stones in glass houses

West Ham boss David Moyes has warned Manchester United winger Antony about his showboating ahead of Sunday's clash.

The Hammers face a United side tomorrow whose winger Antony has been criticised for a double spin turn against Sheriff Tiraspol in the Europa League on Thursday, especially as the Brazilian then put the ball out of play for a goal kick.

Moyes has not seen the clip of the 720-degree spin, but knows West Ham's own Brazilian star Lucas Paqueta has also been criticised this season for showing off.

Moyes, a former central defender, was asked how he would deal with an attacker spinning in circles in front of him.

"I don't think I'd have gotten close enough to him, that's the problem!" the Scot said. "We all know when we think it's a little over the top.

"We've had one or two moments, so I wouldn't throw stones in glass houses. I've had a couple of times already where I've had to say 'be careful'."
