Moyes: I’m embarrassed by the result and performance

Moyes #Moyes

Fulham are a good team.

They’re scoring goals and we ran out of steam in the last couple of days. Even mentally, what it took out of us to get a result at Tottenham, I just felt today Edson pulled out because of illness, we had Pablo and Emerson who were both ill yesterday and we weren’t sure how they would be.

It’s nearly impossible to keep the players fresh [in this schedule], but it would be possible to put our midweek game on Wednesday.

It was on Thursday and I can’t do anything about that. I can only tell you it played a part. It wasn’t the reason we lost. We didn’t perform well enough and Fulham did.

The supporters were great and stuck with the team.

I think most of the supporters probably understood where we’d been in midweek, and we had two away games this week.

Everyone had two away games or two homes in this period and not many have taken six points.

Two away games, if you’d given me three points Id have probably said yes. If you’d given me two draws we’d have said that might have been good results away from home, so to get three points from the two games wasn’t that bad.

But more importantly it was a disappointment today in how we performed.
