West Ham coach McKinlay delighted with first preseason win against Boreham Wood

West Ham United's first team coach Billy McKinlay believes their win over Boreham Wood was a good start to preseason.

The Hammers are already underway with their preparations for the new Premier League season.

David Moyes' side, who will also play in the Europa League through their Conference League win, beat Boreham 4-1 on Monday.

McKinlay told reporters post-game: “We're back into it really quickly

“The close season always goes quickly and the boys have come back on a high. We've had a really good first few days and it's great to be back ready to go again this season.

“The Gaffer has had to change pre-season a little bit because of the nature of the first couple of weeks. We go to Australia tomorrow where we have two games coming up quickly, so tonight's game is little bit earlier on in pre-season than in previous years."
