Moyes: My biggest West Ham success?

Departing West Ham United boss David Moyes has defended his tenure at the club.

Moyes has not always enjoyed the best of relationships with the club's supporters.

While he admits the football could have been better at times, he wants the fas to acknowledge how far they have come in a few years.

I think my biggest success was keeping West Ham in the Premier League," says Moyes to The Standard.

I had a little more time in my first spell at the club but the second spell was definitely tougher."

I'm quite proud of my managerial career really because you don't survive in the Premier League unless you have a level of success," he added.

If I had never won a trophy during that time I would have still felt proud but lifting that cup meant something more visible, more tangible and it was the first time a British manager had won a European club title since Sir Alex Ferguson in 2008."
