Jarvis: West Ham in pre-season training but yet to meet Bilic

West Ham United winger Matt Jarvis has confirmed that newly-appointed coach Slaven Bilic is yet to turn up at the pre-season training.

Jarvis, who is in Ireland with the squad as they prepare for the start of their Europa League campaign, admits that he and his teammates are yet to meet new boss.

"I haven't met [Slaven Bilic] yet," Jarvis told talkSPORT's Drivetime. "He's coming out [to Ireland] on Friday.

"It'll be good to meet him and see what his way of doing things is.

"We've come back and gone straight into pre-season where you work at your fitness and when it all working towards the game he'll be here and show us how he wants us to play. We'll have to get on with it."

West Ham meet Andorran club FC Lusitans at Upton Park on July 2 in the first leg of Europa League qualifying before travelling to Andorra la Vella for the second leg a week later.
