Sam Allardyce praises West Ham United focus

West Ham United boss Sam Allardyce has praised his team for their "focus and concentration" during Sunday's win over Queens Park Rangers.

The Hammers moved up to seventh place in the Premier League table on the weekend thanks to a 2-0 victory at Upton Park.

"I thought our focus and concentration was very good," Allardyce told the club's official website. "We didn't make the mistakes that we made against Manchester United last week.

"We've conceded too many goals through defensive errors so far. Hopefully we'll keep [Sunday's performance] up for the rest of the season."

West Ham continue their Premier League campaign on October 18 when they make the trip to struggling Burnley.
