Nene assures West Ham: I won't cause problems

Nene is anxious to kickoff his West Ham United career.

The Brazilian joined the Hammers last week after leaving Al Gharafa.

"I can only worry about my own work," Nene told the Mirror. "I will play well to help the manager and my team-mates. That is all I will concentrate on. Anything else is not to do with us players.

"I am a happy guy. I make jokes, I like to smile. I don't cause problems. The only time I will cause a problem is if we lose. I do not like losing. Even if I play rock, paper, scissors with you, I don't like to lose!

"So, if we lose a game, I might be crazy. But any other time, I will be relaxed.

"We need to all stick together if we are going to be at our best. I think that is really important.

"I think our objective has to be to get into Europe. Sure, we would prefer Champions League football - but, if we get into the Europa League, I think that would be good too."
