West Ham manager David Moyes has come out to say that the Premier League must take preference over the FA Cup.
The Hammers are currently in the relegation zone of the Premier League and Moyes insists the FA Cup must not damage the club's efforts to retain their top-tier status this season.
Starting with a home league match against West Brom on Tuesday, the east London side travel to Wembley to face Tottenham on Thursday, followed by a trip to Shrewsbury in the FA Cup next Sunday and Moyes explains why he has no choice but to prioritise the relegation scrap, rather than focus on a possible run in the FA Cup.
He said: "Do I want to win the FA Cup? One-hundred per cent. But I don't think it can be so we damage our league season and if we got through? Then our next two games are on a Tuesday against Crystal Palace, and against Brighton on the Saturday after the fourth round. If I could win the Cup I would definitely try to win the Cup, but I couldn't do it if I thought it would affect the Premier League."
