West Ham United held out to secure a goalless draw at home with Arsenal on Wednesday after the visitors missed a string of chances in a pulsating Premier League clash at the London Stadium. The result left Arsenal seventh on 30 points from 17 games while West Ham are 19th on 14 points, two more than bottom team Swansea City but trailing Crystal Palace and West Bromwich Albion on goal difference. "I have to give the players great credit for defending well and being resolute," Moyes told the BBC. Forward Alex Iwobi hit the post in the first half and midfielder Jack Wilshere blasted over the bar from eight metres after the break, with West Ham goalkeeper Adrian also making several good saves. "But if you had seen what the players have done over the last couple of weeks, their work deserved that."
