West Ham United defender Joey O'Brien believes that his side lost to the better team in their defeat to Everton at Goodison Park.

West Ham United defender Joey O'Brien feels that his side got what they "deserved" in their 2-0 loss to Everton.

A brace from Kevin Mirallas earned the Toffees the win in David Moyes's last game at Goodison Park as manager of the Merseysiders.

"It's really disappointing," O'Brien told the club's official website. "I'm not going to stand here and make excuses, we were poor.

"It's a hard place to come, they have a smashing team and are high up the league for a reason, but the fact it was David Moyes's last home game added a bit more spice to it.

"But for them to score after five minutes, we were always going to be on the back foot. Their spirits got up and it was hard for us to get in to the game. We didn't really perform in the second half either so we got what we deserved."

West Ham are 10th in the Premier League following their defeat on Sunday.
