Alan Curbishley is backing West Ham to beat Everton in the Carling Cup quarter final and go on to win the trophy. The West Ham boss has been in the job for a year and is looking for a victory to celebrate his anniversary.
"We got a great start to the week (with a 1-0 win) at Blackburn," he said.
"We feel the Carling Cup is a competition we should attack. A Premier League side will win the Carling Cup and we thought 'Why not us?'
"Certainly here at West Ham we enjoy a good cup run and it keeps everything bubbling along.
"It will be an interesting night. The crowd are up for it, we are up for it and Everton are going well. Something has got to give."
"In some respects, Everton and Blackburn have been the successes of the Premier League over the last four years.
"The top four is always difficult to break into. But that doesn't stop you trying. Everton have always been there and thereabouts.
"That is what we are able to do. We need to lay some foundations to build the club and that is what we are trying to do."
