Ben Johnson has revealed what it is like to work under David Moyes with the young defender highlighting the minute detail the manager goes into to get the best out of his team. Despite this success Johnson has admitted Moyes is not letting anyone rest on their laurels and is continually pushing his team on to improve.
Ben Johnson said: “He is always driving us in training to keep our levels high and in games too and that is something you want to do. We want to progress now and keep going, you want to test yourself even if the game feels like it is over if you are 3-0 up with ten minutes to go we want more.”
Such is Moyes’ attention to detail the first example Johnson had when explaining how this West ham team can improve was about the relatively minor point of throw-ins.
Ben Johnson said: “He is always looking at what we can get better at because there are things that the manager will see that maybe we were not quite at it, for example, throw-ins we can work on them, there are things we can do in and out of possession that we can work on and little bits in our play we need to improve and the manager is a great spearhead for that.”
Moyes is known for working his team hard and never letting them settle and Johnson is loving life under the Scot despite the occasional raised voice.
Ben Johnson added: “It is a great feeling to play under him. He gives you confidence and when he shouts at you that means he cares. He has been brilliant.”
