West Ham United manager David Moyes has blasted his side's sloppiness as they suffered a 3-2 defeat against Newcastle United on Saturday.
The Hammers took the lead after six minutes through Marko Arnautovic, but only scored again after conceding three goals to Rafael Benitez's team.
The result, which was Newcastle's first win in 10 matches, could easily have been avoided according to Moyes.
"It was a game full of errors, we had them the whole game," the Scotsman told reporters. "We could not pull it together at all. We were huffing and puffing but could not pull together anything of note though the whole game.
"We did not pass well enough out from the back when we had the chance to and, when you are in the position we are in, you cannot afford to miss penalties. We have done that twice since I have been here.
"And then we have conceded a farcical third goal. It was glaringly obvious we missed Manuel Lanzini. Whatever the result is at this time of year, the turnaround is such that you have to roll on to the next game."
West Ham begin their festive schedule with a trip to the south coast to face Bournemouth on Boxing Day.
