Allardyce On Disasterous Mistakes

Sam Allardyce reflected back on West Ham's mistakes after they were beaten at the Liberty

Sam Allardyce reflected back on West Ham's mistakes after they were beaten at the Liberty

Allardyce said after the game "We had two disastorous mistakes by a goalkeeper and centre half and when you make them kind of mistakes at this level away from home it will be hard to come back.

"we gifted them the lead, they effectively have then won the game and can keep the ball which makes it harder for us

"Other than that there was nothing between the two teams - we made the mistakes and they punished us heavily for it.

"Matt Jarvis was dangerous in the first half but tired in the second after a long week for him.

"I have to also be critical that we didnt take our chances but the errors were the most costly for us.

"I made a tactical change at half time with Vaz Te as he is a goalscorer and we tried to get ourelves back in the game but we could not manage it.

"I've got some interesting decisions ahead of Tuesday."
