West Ham United claim a straightforward 4-1 victory at Swansea City to ease their relegation worries while piling more pressure on under-fire Swans boss Bob Bradley.

West Ham United have eased to a 4-1 victory at Swansea City to ease their relegation worries while piling more pressure on under-fire Swans boss Bob Bradley.

Andre Ayew returned to haunt his former club as he made the most of Lukasz Fabianski's fumble and tapped home his first goal for West Ham just before the quarter-hour mark.

The Hammers retained their one-goal lead going into the second half but soon added to it when Winston Reid headed in from a corner in the 50th minute.

Michail Antonio then made sure of the win 12 minutes from time, capitalising on more poor defending from the Swans and, despite Fernando Llorente's 89th-minute consolation, Andy Carroll restored his side's three-goal lead moments later.

The result sees Slaven Bilic's charges climb to 11th in the table, eight points above the bottom three, while the Welsh side remain entrenched in the relegation zone, propping up the division and sitting four points from safety.
