New West Ham boss David Moyes is happy to be taking charge during the international break.
The Scot has been handed an initial six-month deal, taking him through until the end of the season, after replacing Slaven Bilic who was sacked on Monday.
The two-week international break gives Moyes the chance to get to know his players on the training ground and prepare for vital matches ahead.
He said: "It gives me a chance to get settled in and get to know how things work. I think we've got a good squad. At the moment they should be in a better position than they are, and I believe they will be come the end of the season. I've got no doubts about that, but ultimately we have to show it on the pitch.
"I hope West Ham fans are going to see a team that is organised and disciplined. But I have always only ever wanted to be involved with attacking, entertaining football. And I feel really confident with the group of players we have got here that we can provide that.
"West Ham supporters are a very passionate group, and we need them behind us. How do we do that? By building a successful team, with good players playing well, and that's what we are aiming to do."
