Piers Morgan revealed what David Moyes has said about West Ham United’s clash with Manchester City.
Manchester City’s 2-0 victory over Tottenham Hotspur on Tuesday ensured that Pep Guardiola’s men head into the final game of the season two points ahead of Arsenal.
Sunday will see City host West Ham at the Emirates, while Arsenal take on Everton while hoping to receive a favour from Moyes in what will be his last game as West Ham boss.

And Morgan, a huge Arsenal fan, has sent out a rallying cry to the East London side, asking them to do it for Moyes and Declan Rice, who left West Ham for the Gunners last summer.
He told talkSPORT: “I randomly bumped into David Moyes, who was heading into talkSPORT the other day. I bumped into him in a bar.
“I just got a sense that he wants to go out of West Ham with a bang. What better way can he go out than dismantling City in their own backyard and letting Arsenal win the league.

“Also, West Ham fans… what better way for you to say thank you to David Moyes but also for Declan Rice! The man who brought you European glory.
“The man who week-after-week held you up as a team and carried you on his shoulders. What better way to go out than win it for Moysey and win it for Declan.”
Morgan added: “It’s not over yet and anything can happen on that final day. I thought City looked a little bit jittery and a bit nervous. That’s going to go away.
“Imagine if West Ham score early on Sunday. I think all bets are off. I hope they get a goal and put pressure on them and we do our bit.”

Despite Ange Postecoglou’s side’s defeat to City seeing them miss out on Champions League football, several Spurs fans revelled in their defeat, given it significantly dented Arsenal’s chances of winning the title.
On the matter, Morgan said: “They should have got a point and that’s what disappoints me. If they’d have had the full support of their fans, which is what normal fans in that situation would have done if they were a club who wants to be one of the bigger clubs.
“The atmosphere was dreadful and the players did try hard. If you are one of those players and you’ve got a manager willing you to do everything you can, then you’ve got the fans literally silent and only erupting and chanting when City scored. What message does that send to the players.”
