Kurt Zouma believes West Ham fans “deserve” to see their team playing in Europe “every season”.
One of the most impressive aspects of David Moyes’ side this season is that they are moving to prove their 2020/21 campaign was no fluke. Rather than a one-off, West Ham’s form in both domestic and European competition this time around speaks to a team built on solid foundations.
Naturally, supporters will be dreaming about potentially qualifying for the Champions League but regular participation in the Europa League would still be a sign of progress for the club.
Speaking to West Ham’s official website, Zouma said: “We can always do better and the rest will help us recover and prepare ourselves. After the break we have to be ready.”
“The goal for the season is to be in Europe. I think West Ham deserve to be there every season and we’re going to fight for it.”
