West Ham United midfielder Jole Cole admits they need a result against Tottenham.
West Ham have dropped to 17th, one point above the relegation zone.
"It's been a tough few weeks for us," admits Cole. "We have not got the number of points on the board that we wanted and now we're going into a run of very tough games. Starting with Tottenham on Sunday, we have to get the right results.
"Tottenham have lost Gareth Bale and that has probably shifted the onus onto their other players.
"They look very well balanced and good going forward.
"They did some good business in the summer and it's going to be a really tough game."
