It's not happened again...

Tottenham 2 West Ham 0

The Irons are in deep trouble after a second Restart defeat. At least Antonio worked the keeper in the first half, almost scoring a copy of his winner last season. Against that Fabianski saved well from Moura, Kane missed a good chance and Son had a goal on 45 minutes correctly disallowed for a marginal offside.

With the score goalless Fornals missed another good chance after being set up by Bowen. Spurs' opener was lucky, a corner that deflected in off the Soucek's thigh. It could also have been disallowed had VAR spotted a slight handball. Snodgrass had a goal disallowed at Sheffield United in similar circumstances, but we can't rely on hard luck stories anymore. 

Moyes brought on Lanzini and Anderson to try and create something, but could have acted sooner. The key moment came when Anderson did well to cut the ball back to Bowen who fired against the outside of the post. With West Ham pressing a breakaway goal seemed inevitable and Harry Kane duly obliged after Antonio lost possession and Diop and Balbuena were outpaced. 

It was a better performance than against Wolves but that isn't saying too much. Moyes has to get brave and go for wins now. But it doesn't look like it will get any easier with Chelsea the next visitors to the London Stadium and no crowd to fire up the home side. Relegation is now looking increasingly likely.

I'm not even sure we'll beat anyone from now, we can't score for toffee(as they used to say)

Difficult to know how much is lack of confidence versus uselessness. We need a lucky goal from somewhere...
