David Moyes ‘disappointed’ with Real Sociedad defeat to Valencia

Two second-half strikes from diminutive winger Pablo Piatti proved enough to earn Los Che all three points, although Moyes claimed both goals had been given away too cheaply by his players.

“It’s true I expected more after we beat Sevilla last week and despite having a few injuries we did not play well,” the Scot told reporters.

“However, we must carry on with the players we have, first of all to ensure safety in La Liga and also to try and get ourselves as far up the table as possible.

“But I was disappointed with our showing at Mestalla and we gave away two cheap goals. We need to improve a lot against teams of this calibre because they are a side with high expectations who are looking to challenge Real Madrid and Barcelona.

“Atletico Madrid showed last year that these type of clubs can go head-to-head with them,” he added.
