Angry David Moyes exchanges words with Said Benrahma after he hooks him against Newcastle and adds to unwanted record

ANGRY David Moyes exchanged words with Said Benrahma after he hooked the winger off in the 1-1 draw with Newcastle.

Top four hopefuls West Ham went into Saturday's game needing a win to keep their Champions League hopes alive.



But the Hammers turned in a poor performance, coming out second best to a Newcastle side without Kieran Trippier, Callum Wilson or Allan Saint-Maximin.

And with just over quarter of an hour to go, Moyes subbed off Benrahma for Nikola Vlasic in the hope of changing West Ham's fortunes.

The Scot exchanged words and wagged his finger at Benrahma as he passed him on the touchline.

Benrahma didn't exactly cover himself in glory at the London Stadium, managing just 33 touches in 73 minutes played.

The Algerian also made just 24 passes and won two duels.

However, he did recover the ball for the Hammers five times.

Benrahma's lack of goal involvements in recent months may be the reason why he is the MOST subbed player in the Premier League.

The winger has been subbed off 17 times for West Ham.

His last goal came on December 28 in the 4-1 away win against Watford, and his last assist was on New Year's Day against Crystal Palace.
