Pedro Obiang has identified a problem area in Hammers hunt for home points.
And it appears to back the view of those who believes the stadium itself is a problem for the team following life at the Boleyn.
The midfielder – one of the big success stories of the season – said that the size of the pitch has been a problem as the team as attempted to exert itself.”
The Hammers will be aiming to correct a situation which has seen them create the sixth worst home record in the Premiership this season when they face Chelsea tonight.
Obiang said: “I don’t need to explain because clearly, it’s bigger. It’s also difficult to listen to the fans and for us, the pitch is very big.”
