Speaking after the game at Manchester City he declared: ““I don’t think we’ll be in trouble.
“We have a good team, good players and I think the performance gives us hope that it can be done.
“I thought the players’ effort and energy showed it can be done. It gives us a real chance.
“I said to them that if we do that against the other top teams we’ll give ourselves a chance.”
He said: “I want to be attacking, but we were playing against a team that hardly gives you the ball.
“You’re not just going to stand there and give them the opportunities to score.
“I’m not here to make City look good. I am here to try to get a result for West Ham.
