‘There are no easy games’ – West Ham United boss Guarino on Charlton Athletic test West Ham United head coach Rita Guarino says that there are no easy games in the Barclays Women’s Super League, regardless of form and rankings. The Hammers face bottom club Charlton Athletic in their latest fixture at The Chigwell Construction Stadium this weekend. The Addicks are still looking for their first point in the top flight. When speaking to the media in the pre-match press conference, West Ham United boss Guarino insisted that no game is easy and that her side will be focused on performing to the highest level. “In this league, there are no easy games,” Guarino said. “We need to be very focused and determined on delivering our high standards in the game. We need to think about how we do our best to overcome the next challenge.” West Ham United suffered a 5-0 defeat at Manchester City last weekend. Guarino said that it’s always a difficult task to regain focus on the next game, regardless of the result. She said “It’s never easy [to regain focus], more-so when you win a good game. It’s never easy, you have to remind the players that you can learn from winning and losing games. You need to improve every time. “We just need to focus on ourselves, what we can improve and think about the next game because it is important. “It’s never easy, but it’s important to be focused on areas for improvement and the next game.” West Ham United defeated Liverpool 4-1 in their last home game and Guarino says that the fans have a big part to play again this weekend. She said “For us, it’s very important that we can feel the support or our fans when we play at home. It’s like having a 12th player on the pitch.   “It’s very important to make it hard for the opposition to play against us at home at our stadium.” West Ham United’s Barclays Women’s Super League fixture against Charlton Athletic kicks-off at 2pm on Sunday afternoon.
