"This season it's not realistic but there's nothing wrong with dreaming about it or trying to achieve it," Bilic told the club's website (www.whufc.com).

"I hope we can aim for Champions League in the future, and long-term I don't have a problem saying it should be part of the plan, what with moving to the new stadium and with all the revenue and the fans and the size of the club."

West Ham travel to Goodison Park to take on 11th-placed Everton in the league on Saturday.
