Fresh from securing their first away win of the season at Doncaster the Hammers didn’t waste any time in their efforts to secure back to back away wins for the first time in almost four years.
Goals from James Tomkins, Joey O’Brien, Carlton Cole and Scott Parker gave Sam Allardyce something to purr over.
“It doesn’t get much better than that, mused Allardyce. “The pleasing thing for me is how we have won the game. There is no doubt that the quality of our goals, all four goals, was something to be admired.
“We withstood the early pressure from Watford and obviously the goal helped, but it was how we defended. We never let Watford get a sniff tonight.”
