West Ham boss Moyes: What we're expecting from Soucek...

West Ham boss David Moyes is hoping for big things from new signing Tomas Soucek.

The Hammers completed the loan signing of Soucek from Slavia Prague prior to Wednesday's defeat to Liverpool, and having seen what he is capable off on the international and UEFA Champions League stages, Moyes is looking forward to seeing him in Claret and Blue.

"I hope he brings what I've seen him bring when he's played for Slavia Prague or the Czech Republic, which is he's scored quite a few goals from midfield," he said.

"He's big, he's athletic, he can cover ground and he's also played as a holding midfield player as well. He can give us cover for Declan Rice and Noble in that position, but he also adds to it in that we've got a midfield player who can get goals as well."
