Nigel told Sky Sports News, “This is a very big game for us, the FA Cup is the history - it is fantastic.
“We know what the FA Cup is about, and it would be nice for West Ham to get to a major final and win the FA Cup - that's our aim now.”
On the manager Alan Pardew's decision to rest key players for the home defeat against Portsmouth on Saturday, Nigel said, “I think the cup is already a greater priority.
“Our main goal this season was survival and I think we've managed that now and we have a got a chance to qualify for Europe, which is another goal we can set ourselves.
“The cup is a fantastic opportunity for us, two more games and the next thing you know you're at the Millennium Stadium.”
