West Ham United manager Julen Lopetegui has apologised to supporters following their 4-1 loss to Tottenham Hotspur, but is confident there will be “better moments” in the future. West Ham conceded three goals in eight minutes and Mohammed Kudus was sent off for violent conduct after shoving Micky van de Ven and Pape Mate Sarr in the face.

It was a tale of two managers when Spurs met the Hammers on Saturday, with Postecoglou passing the torch of criticism onto his Spanish counterpart

Defeat saw West Ham fall to 14th in the Premier League after a disappointing start to the season under new manager Lopetegui, whose side have won only two of their opening eight league games of the campaign.
