Forget the magic of the FA Cup, for West Ham the reality of what is likely to be a Championship fixture next season. An indicator that life in the second tier will be no cakewalk. That QPR took them to extra-time will do little for Nuno Espirito Santo's standing, despite a first win since 8 November.

I haven't had much time to think about the exact solution but I think there are other people who are thinking about that... hopefully!

"She has settled in really well," Ho told BBC Sport. "She is training really well and she has settled in with the players on the pitch. That is where she comes into her own a little bit, she is more relaxed there.

If you asked Harry Kane eight years ago 'do you think you'll end up at Bayern Munich?' He would probably have said no. Maybe a Manchester United, maybe a Manchester City, maybe even a Real Madrid or a Barcelona, but I wouldn't think Bayern Munich would have been in his top half-a-dozen teams that he would have envisaged playing at.
