Premier League strugglers West Ham have a big incentive to reach the Europa Conference League final and win the trophy.
The Hammers have a trophy drought that goes back to 43 years and several generations.
Manager David Moyes, whose side are battling relegation in their domestic league, could do with a European distraction as they take on Gent at the London Stadium on Thursday in the quarter-final second leg.
Bobby Moore and Billy Bonds are two of the finest players and names a lot of people will remember, no matter what team you support," manager Moyes said.
I think that's a big thing, not just for whoever's captain, and that's Dec at the moment.
But I think that's a big incentive for the club. It feels that long since the club has been close to a trophy."
