West Ham United stormed to their third straight win on Boxing Day, beating Swansea City 4-1 at the Vitality Stadium following a thoroughly professional performance.
Hammers boss Slaven Bilic was delighted with his side's professionalism and determination, hailing the performance as the best of their season so far.
Speaking after the win, Bilic said:It was a really good performance. From the first minute until the end we were really compact and were able to defend as a team.
When we had the ball we were really good on it. We kept the ball well and were dangerous when we had opportunities to break on them.
"It was maybe our best performance this season and we totally deserved to win."

Winston Reid, who scored West ham's second goal, told reporters:"We had three huge games, the two past ones we didn't play our best but today was the best we've played all season.
"We were together as a team which was pretty good."
Scorer of the opening goal, Andre Ayew, added:"I think it was important for me to get the goal for the squad, my first goal here. I'm getting back into shape and things are much better now. We had a great game today and hopefully things continue
The result sees West Ham climb to 11th, easing the pressure on Bilic who was previously under fire following a stuttering start to the season.
