Aaron Cresswell has welcomed the addition of Julian Dicks to West Ham United's coaching staff.

The Hammers cult hero was recently appointed as Slaven Bilic's first-team coach and left-back Cresswell is confident it will prove to be a shrewd move by the club.

"It's a great appointment, especially with the fans, the fans love him as well, he's a fans' favourite from his time when he was here and I think he's going to be a good addition to the staff," Cresswell told West Ham TV.

Dicks had been in charge of the West Ham Ladies team prior to his promotion to the Hammers' senior side.
