West Ham boss David Moyes admits it will not be straightforward to move on from the disappointment of their Europa League elimination.

The Hammers fell agonisingly short of a first European final since 1976 following Thursday's 3-1 aggregate defeat to German club Eintracht Frankfurt.

While frustration continues to linger, manager Moyes accepts his side do not have time to feel sorry for themselves.

“To get so close and not actually win a cup or get to a final is slightly disappointing and I think we had a team which is capable of doing that," he said.

“I thought we had a huge opportunity to reach the final and we missed it, so that's still bugging me.

“You have to quickly turn yourself back around and get ready for the game.

“We're in a good league position, we want to stay there, we want to be in Europe next year again if we can be, so we have to win some games.

“It'll not be easy but we'll do everything we possibly can to make it the best we can.

“We know we could still finish sixth and we want to be in a European spot if we can and we'll keep pushing hard for that."
