Kevin Nolan is looking forward to a great weekend as he joins the team for his first game as a member of the Hammers coaching team!
The former skipper could hardly be more delighted to have returned to the club after management stints at Orient and Notts County.
The Hammers though is home to the Scouser who spent four years at the club playing 145 games and scoring 30 goals.
Now having returned as a member of David Moyes’ coaching staff he is determined to enjoy the rest of the season despite the fears hanging over the fan base and club.
He claims he has seen enough of the lads to know that they can turn the situation around . If that happens we can all be assure that the 37 year old will have played a big part in it.
After seeing Jarrod Bowen, Tomas Soucek and Darren Randolph add to their options over January, Nolan is relishing the prospect of working with the squad.
He said at https://www.whufc.com/news/articles/2020/february/07-february/kevin-nolan-it-feels-incredible-be-back: “It feels incredible to be back. I’m delighted, proud and just really looking forward to the rest of the season.
“I can’t wait to get stuck into it. The gaffer has been absolutely fantastic, getting me right involved straight away – it’s all hands to the deck and let’s look forward hopefully to what’s going to be a good weekend.”
“I’ve seen enough from the lads in training [to know they can turn the situation around]. They know the task ahead, and we know the task ahead.
“This has been the first full week where the gaffer has been able to have a real input in what he wants to show, so I’m hoping we’ll see some good stuff and positive stuff at the weekend.
“We’ve all been in these situations before – we all know what’s needed and we’re very confident that we can get there come the end of the season.”
