Goals from Louis Saha and Dan Gosling ensured a first Premier League success in five for Moyes men and the Scot said: We have not played well so we cannot ask for any more. When it was 2-0, I felt we had shored it up with nearly a perfect away performance where you have got the goals but did not play well. The key is always to find a winning formula and we found one. But we need to play better. At the moment, we are lacking just a bit of quality. Tony Hibberts own-goal gave the Hammers hope but boss Gianfranco Zola was left perplexed by the result. We have to analyse the problems first and find solutions, he said. I felt the players gave everything.

The Gunners boss is convinced his side can make a real push for the Premier League title with their own brand of cutting-edge football. Wengers men dismantled Wolves 4-1atMolineuxonSaturdaytostretch their unbeaten run in all competitions to 13 games. not that Wenger is sur- prised, as he said: I have had belief since the first day of the season. I hope to keep convincing the players they could have an interest- ing part to play in the championship. The most important thing is to play for each other and keep your belief. In this job there is never enough be- lief. We want to give our best in every game and thats what we are doing. Arsenal are averaging more than three goals a game in the league, having netted 36 times in just 11 matches. Wenger added: Scoring 36 goals is a tremendous record. That is great credit to the team and to the way we play. Cesc Fabregas notched his sixth league goal of the season on Satur- day, while fellow midfielder Andrey Arshavin weighed in with his fourth in domestic competition. However, Arsenal had considera- ble help from Wolves with ronald Zubar and then Jody Craddock both scoring own goals before Fabregas made his mark in first-half stoppage time with a simple finish. Arshavin put the game out of reach in the 64th minute before Craddock scored at the right end late on. Brown enjoys win and tonic UnDeR-FiRe Hull boss Phil Brown chose to avoid the media after Jan Vennegoor of Hesselinks late winner handed his team a vital win over Stoke. the tigers, having won just three times in 33 Premier league games, had seemed destined for another damaging defeat after a first-half strike from Matthew etherington. But Browns side, re-invigorated by the presence of record signing Jimmy Bullard, earned reward for their greater endeavour as Seyi Olofinjana levelled against his former club and Vennegoor of Hesselink struck moments after Stoke had captain Abdoulaye Faye sent off for a second booking. He does like the spotlight theres nothing wrong with that but tonight hes chosen not to, said assistant manager Brian Horton, when asked about Browns absence from the post- match press conference. He has just come out of the spotlight. He is having a Guinness. Why shouldnt he? Horton, however, was more guarded when asked whether he felt, after a week of speculation, the win had saved Browns job. We hope we can now go on a run and nobody talks about stupid things like that, he added.
