Moyes called Bilic after it became clear he would be succeeding the Croatian.

Bilic told the Daily Mail: "I've known him since he was at Everton, we would have chats about his striker Nikica Jelavic, who also played for Croatia.

"We had a relaxed chat about West Ham — why not? — but the details aren't for the paper. To be fair, a lot of the things he said were exactly the points I would have made. He didn't need me to tell him a lot of things because he still has (goalkeeping coach) Chris Woods, who was there with me from day one."
