Under pressure: West Ham have struggled despite spending big money
(Picture: Getty Images)David Moyes insists he is too experienced to feel the pressure as West Ham prepare to return to domestic action.
The Scot has credit in the bank after two successful campaigns despite a poor start to this season following a £150m spending spree over the course of the summer.
While there are currently no plans to replace Moyes, the pressure is on after spending big and the second half of the season will need to see a major improvement.
Lucas Paqueta and Gianluca Scamacca were two of their most high-profile arrivals but are yet to wholly convince.
“I’ve had great conversations with David Sullivan and as you get older you don’t feel the pressure so much,” said Moyes.
“It’s not quite the same as at different times and you understand as you get older that you go through difficult times as well as good times.
“We’ve had two-and-a-half, three years of great times here and sometimes there are dips. Those are the times you need strong board members, supporters to get behind the team and everybody to pull together.”
West Ham have won only four Premier League games this season and sit just a point above the relegation zone, albeit having impressed in the Europa Conference League.
Boxing Day sees them travel to League leaders Arsenal before a trip to London rivals Brentford four days later as they look to get their season back on track.
