West Ham's Slaven Bilic 'didn't expect' to find hooliganism in England

Slaven Bilic has backed West Ham's zero tolerance policy on the hooligans who shamed the club against Chelsea on Wednesday night.

The Hammers intend to ban 200 fans who were involved in the crowd trouble that marred their 2-1 EFL Cup win at the London Stadium.

Coins, seats and plastic bottles were thrown between home and away supporters and stewards and police had to intervene to prevent rival fans clashing.

Hammers boss Bilic, like many, felt such shocking scenes were a thing of the past -- in England at least -- and admits it needs stamping out.
