Sam wants to win for Gerrard

West Ham manager Sam Allardyce is hoping his side can spoil Manchester City’s title party tomorrow and in doing so allow Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard tick the final box in his CV.

Allardyce admits City “individually they’re better than us” but said: “Everyone can go out and give everything they’ve got on the basis that they know we’re in the Premier League next year.

“We can build a resilience, a frustration and then maybe create a chance or two when we have possession which is going to be critical for us on the day. Let’s try and spoil Manchester City’s party.”
