West Ham United manager Sam Allardyce has criticised both his players and match referee Mike Dean after losing 3-1 to Southampton in today's Premier League clash at Upton Park.
A Morgan Schneiderlin brace and a Graziano Pelle strike undid the Hammers in front of their own fans, with Mark Noble's goal proving no more than a consolation.
Allardyce told reporters after the game: "We weren't good enough. Southampton taught us a lesson, we weren't sharp enough and didn't retain the ball as well as they did, close down as well as they did and gifted them two goals.
"The big problem I had with the corner [for the second goal] was that it was a goal-kick of course. I've had a look at it on the laptop and can the referee see it?
"Having looked at it from Mike Dean's position he's got it horribly wrong when we don't need it to go against us."
West Ham currently occupy 10th place in the Premier League.
