West Ham United boss Avram Grant has told Carlton Cole he's seeking an attacking coach to work with him.
Grant has told Cole that the club are beginning to move in the right direction - and repeated his desire to keep the unhappy 27-year-old beyond the January transfer window.
Grant said: "We are looking for an attacking coach. With Wally, I had a few weeks to interview people. Someone suggested Wally and I saw he was the good solution. He's done a good job.
"We are looking for forward coaches but they're not easy to find. We don't want to rush. We need to find the right person for each position.
"All my staff have the freedom to speak and they are - but the decision about everything is mine. I have a good team. The staff are not just good, but passionate to be better.
"We are building something here and to beat Manchester United was a good step forward.
"The players showed that they can do good things. This was very important for us.
"Some players, when they don't perform well, are disappointed and they say some things - but this is kept within the club."
