# Obiang: We need time to adjust to Moyes

West Ham midfielder Pedro Obiang admits he and his team mates must adjust to new manager David Moyes’ tactics quickly and work harder to get back to winning ways in the Premier League, the [Daily Mail](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-5107157/Pedro-Obiang-says-West-Ham-work-hard-David-Moyes.html) report.

Obiang, 25, was included in Moyes’ first side as they were defeated by Watford on Sunday, and he is desperate for his side to pick up a victory in the league for the first time since the end of September.

The Hammers moved swiftly to fill the void at the London Stadium after parting ways with Slaven Bilic, and appointed Moyes on a six-month deal until the end of the season.

Speaking to the club’s website ahead of Friday’s match against Leicester City, Obiang said:

> We have to work hard for the next game and forget about the last one because what happened, happened. We need time to understand better what he \[Moyes\] wants and we have to work a little bit more to be fit to do the things he wants.

The Hammers are currently sitting in the final relegation spot, with only nine points from a possible 36 so far this season, and face a tricky run of fixtures as Christmas approaches.
