Aston Villa boss Steven Gerrard is eager to model his team on what David Moyes is achieving at West Ham.
Gerrard, who captained Liverpool during Moyes' successful time with Everton, will meet his old rival for the first time as a manager when Aston Villa travel to the London Stadium on Sunday.
He said: "David and his coaching staff are all doing a fantastic job for West Ham.
"(On Thursday) they were competing in Europe, which is a long-term goal for ourselves.
"We need to admire what they're doing and respect what they're doing, but it's a fantastic opportunity for us as well to go and show where we're at, really take the challenge on and go toe-to-toe with a good team."
