In the third part of this week's exclusive interview
with Eggert Magnusson, the West Ham United chairman today talks
about his belief in Alan Curbishley and the Club's coaching
staff…
"I am very pleased with our progress in recent weeks," he says. "We have won four of our last six games and put in an excellent effort to give ourselves a chance of remaining in this division. The work ethic and team spirit that Alan Curbishley has instilled has been there for all to see on the pitch.
"We enjoyed an excellent win against Arsenal a few weeks ago and became the first away team in the short history of the Emirates Stadium to take all three points there. It has been a rollercoaster ride over the last few months, but that is why we all love football."
Speaking about Curbs, Mr Magnusson said: "He has an excellent record in football management and has taken the club to within touching distance of safety, when a few months ago things were looking more difficult.
"Since Alan was first appointed in December, I've got to know him better as a person as well as a manager and I have no doubt that he is the right man to take West Ham United forward.
"During the January transfer window we spent virtually every single day together, he would come straight to my office after training and matches and we would plan what was needed to grow and strengthen the team.
"Throughout this time I came to understand just how dedicated and focused Alan is to his job and it cemented my belief that I had appointed the right man for this job."
