West Ham manager Rita Guarino has seen improvements in her players since taking over from Rehane Skinner just before Christmas.

After a 4-0 defeat by Chelsea in her first game, the Hammers were clinical against high-flying WSL 2 side Newcastle in the FA Cup last weekend, winning 3-0 to sail into the fifth round.

Guarino said that game encouraged her as she plots taking three vital points at Leicester City on Sunday.

"It was very important to have a reaction," she said. "You can do mistakes but it is very important to have the confidence to be better.

"[Against Newcastle] was a game where we improved a lot. It was important to win and score three goals. My learning has been about us and how to help our team do better step by step.

"Every point at this moment is important - but of course we go there to win."

Leicester away will be Guarino's third game on the road since her appointment - she said it has been valuable for getting to know her team.

"It has given us an opportunity to stay together," she explained. "It is very important to talk more and know more about their lives, not just football."
