'We're the new boys on the block': David Moyes takes aim at Uefa's planned Champions League reforms ahead of West Ham's Europa League quarter-final first leg

David Moyes took aim at UEFA yesterday over their proposed changes to European qualification in favour of traditional big clubs, saying West Ham want to win the Europa League to prove a point.

UEFA want to change the rules so that FA Cup winners can qualify for the Champions League — but only if they are a club with a history of success in Europe.

The idea, in line to be introduced in 2024, has been likened to the failed European Super League bid because of the favouritism it shows to the elite.
