Psycho: “It was too good to turn down”

stuart-pearce-set-to-be-named-assistant-manager-to-david-moyes-at-west-hamStuart Pearce has spoken for the first time since returning to West Ham describing the opportunity as “too good to turn down.”

And he has made it clear that “togetherness ” will be the key as the Hammers aim to climb to the table – kicking off the process at Watford on Saturday.

Speaking to the official site Psycho said: “David [Moyes] is acutely aware – as we all are – of exactly where the club are at this moment in time.

“It’s not going to be easy, no one is expecting it to be, because the stakes are very high in the Premier League, but I think with the staff here and the squad of players, we have a great chance.

“The main thing is to enhance the togetherness at the club. I’ve watched West Ham a lot from the outside, because it’s one of my former clubs, I probably keep a closer eye on things.

“I’ve seen a lot of them this season – I covered the Tottenham game at Wembley and the Liverpool game last week, and it is clear that everyone needs galvanizing.

“Confidence has been dented and that is part of the task, to get that back on track. We need to find that togetherness again and the players are the most powerful ones of all in showing that.”

He added: “I’ve been doing one day a week this season at Portsmouth, helping out Kenny Jackett, who is a good friend, and I guess that has probably sparked my excitement again in regards to coaching.

“The media work has been good for me, but I really feel that I’ve got something to offer the coaching set-up here.

“It’s an opportunity to work in the Premier League again, with a good squad of players – it was too good to turn down.”
