This is the Sky Sports Premier League podcast. Thanks for joining us. The Premier League returns with a huge clash at the bottom of the table as West Ham took on Wolves at the London Stadium. Here is how the game finished.
Well West Ham have found quite the way as Nuno does a number over his old club. A huge performance from the Hammers. Mavropanos with two goals. And two goals as well for Tati Castellanos. And a clean sheet as well. The Irons with a second half that took the game away from Wolves, who weren't that bad, it must be said, but were taken apart by the Inns. Bowen with two assists tonight as well.
What was the significance of West Ham's 4-0 victory over Wolves?
And to lay down a marker to your relegation rivals, well, what a marker. West Ham's biggest win of the season, and the perfect time to get it at the business end of the season. a rare smile perhaps for Nuno well what his side has achieved tonight is something for the others in the relegation fight will have to follow a big task for them as they have big matches but West Ham have played their part and for Wolves well is this a final now in their coffin in regards to safety their relegation could be confirmed the next time they play but for West Ham they've given themselves real hope and to go above Tottenham to boot. There's the big smile from the West Ham manager on a big night for West Ham United.
A final score at the London Stadium, a resounding West Ham United 4, Wolverhampton Wanderers 0.
Rob Green, four goals, three precious points out of the bottom three at the expense of Tottenham for the time being. This is a huge night.
Wow. What a moment. What a moment for that man. What a moment for the team. What a moment for the fans. They've been waiting for this moment. And I think for the West Ham fans now, you can end the season now. Just call it quits there. But still work to do. They put themselves in a really, really good position with this performance.
Seven games to play for the teams below them, including Tottenham. West Ham now out of the bottom three. They've got a couple of decent fixtures coming up at home, Jamie. How much hope have they given themselves?
They've given themselves so much hope today. I thought they were aggressive. I thought the manager deserves credit. Before the game, I wasn't sure how it was going to work. They played a 4-4-2, got the two up front. Tati and Pablo, very effective. But the game completely changed with that first goal. It just calmed everyone down because walks for the first 30 minutes were relatively dangerous. They were starting to get comfortable on the ball. And then Mavropanos produces an incredible header.
How did West Ham's performance impact Tottenham's relegation status?
Then everyone starts to calm down. And then obviously the two goals from Tati after that, you know, two minutes, well, 15 seconds between them. 99 seconds, I think, between the goals.
What role did Mavropanos play in West Ham's win?
And that includes the celebration. Absolutely. And that man there, you know, there's a lot on his shoulders, Jared, because everyone talks about the pressure and what it means for him, the family, everything that goes with it. But I thought he was magnificent today. Papa Caps' performance. And it's a huge result. And all the other managers we were looking at tonight that are in those bottom positions thinking that's the last thing we wanted. It puts an enormous amount of pressure on all those other managers.
And both goalscorers are now with Johnny Phillips.
Dinos, it felt like such an important game where you had to get the win. To get that performance as well, what does it mean?
What strategies did West Ham employ to secure their victory?
Yeah, I think it's an incredible result. We've been working so hard the last couple of months and this kind of game with this atmosphere, this is exactly what we need for the rest of the season.
What was the key, do you feel, to getting that victory in that particular second half performance?
No, I think it was clear as a message to be calm because we didn't know when we were going to score and we just had to keep it how we wanted it. And I think when we scored the first goal, then we felt a little bit more comfortable with the ball as well. And we, as you saw in the second half, we cleared the game.
