article: Peter Moores insisted he could work with Michael Vaughan if he becomes England’s new director of cricket despite the pair’s chequered past. ‘Of course I could,’ said Moores  in St Kitts on Thursday. ‘It’s not a personal thing. People have views. We’re still going through a transitional spell so to me this is about getting England as strong as we can as quickly as we can. Whoever comes into that job I just want to share views to make sure we have the best way forward. The new man is expected to be a supremo who will be very much with the team but Moores was not sure England needed another voice in the dressing room. Michael Vaughan with Peter Moores in 2008 during his unsuccessful first spell as England coach . Moores' position as England coach has come under scrutiny after a woeful World Cup campaign . ‘I don’t think we do,’ he said. ‘It depends who takes the role and how that remit is set out. As always we will have to make it clear what the players have to do to go out and play for England. It depends how the job is set out. Moores is sad to see the departure of Paul Downton, the man who brought him back to the coaching job and called him the ‘outstanding coach of his generation.’ ‘Paul’s a very passionate Englishman and everything he’s done has been to try to help us do better on the field and perform,’ said Moores. ‘When someone goes you’re always sad about that but my job is to make sure we don’t lose our focus on the Test series coming up.

Former England captain Vaughan has emerged as the leading candidate to replace Downton . ‘I don’t think this is about my position, I don’t think it changes much. I’m passionate about cricket, I love the game, and I’ve got a good record as a coach. It’s about the players and I will carry on doing my job here. I see some emerging players I’m very excited about and I’m going to stay committed to them. ‘Tom Harrison passed on the news about what was happening with Paul and that we were going to restructure. He said to me ‘nothing’s changed, keep doing your work’ which is exactly what I’m going to do. ‘I’ve spoken to Paul. He seems fine. He’s given everything to the job and has committed everything to it.’
