Benni McCarthy admits West Ham United players are "heartbroken" over their defeat to Wolves.

The South Africa international striker is desperate to arrest their slide.

McCarthy told whufc.com: "Hopefully, on Saturday, we get a chance to change their minds. We're all in this situation together - us as much as them. If we can get them behind us, it can only help us.

"We're heartbroken to be in this situation, but we've got to come together and stand tall. If we do, we can get the results and see the season out. When we stay in the Premier League, we'll come back next season and not make the same start and find ourselves in this horrible situation again."
