David Moyes has used his pre-match presser for the match against AZ Alkmaar to explain his hopes of making history.

And why he is confident the Hammers can finish the season strongly both in domestic and European competition.

The reality is that we are safe in the Premier League apart from a nuclear explosion on goal difference so he is concentrating by and large on Thursday evening in Holland.

It’s a huge game with the Hammers leading 2-1 going into the 90 minutes courtesy of the winner from Mikey Antonio who is in the squad for the match after suffering a dead leg in the first game. Vladi Coufal is also back for a game.

West Ham boss David Moyes is refusing to bold claiming essentially either team can win. But he made it clear that it would be a big step forward for West ham if they make it into a Final.

He said: “It would be us trying to strive to move forward. Getting to a final would be another step forward. Every club needs a final, every club needs European football if they can get it. It’s a thrill that we’re in this situation.

For me and this group of players, it’s a huge game but we have a really difficult opponent. We have to play really well to reach the final. We are going to have to earn it and we know that.

AZ have shown what they’re capable of when they’ve been behind and we’re unbeaten in Europe this year.
I think it will be a pretty open game. AZ have shown what they’re capable of when they’ve been behind and we’re unbeaten in Europe this year. With all those things added together, for me, it’s looking like an interesting game.
