Europa League: Barcelona, Porto, Sevilla Don’t Scare West Ham United – Moyes

Barcelona, Porto and Sevilla will not pose a problem for West Ham United in the UEFA Europa League after the former’s shocking elimination from the Champions League according to West Ham head coach, David Moyes.
Last weekend the Hammers defeated English Premier League leaders Chelsea and that has acted as a reference point on how dangerous they could be if underrated.
The Hammers ended their group stages of the competition as winners of Group H but due to injuries, the Scott coach fielded an inexperienced side that fell to a narrow 1-0 defeat by Dinamo Zagreb on Thursday night.
European giants like Barca, Porto and Sevilla will be among their potential opponents, but Moyes insisted other teams would be worried about them.
”We’ve got a lot of big teams to play but I think we’re a big team at the moment. A lot of teams will be worried about playing us. We hope we’re in good shape and good form when those games come around.
”Look, the names in the competition make it really difficult. The teams who drop down (from the Champions League) tend to be the teams who get to the final.
”But if we can take on the Champions League finalists and the Champions League winners in recent weeks, I think we’ll give them a good game,” Moyes stated.
