Noble doesn't want West Ham season repeat

West Ham United midfielder Mark Noble admits he did not enjoy the last season.

The Hammers were involved in a relegation dogfight for the majority of the season and angry fans turned on manager Sam Allardyce over his tactics.

"I probably only enjoyed about two months of last season," Noble told the Mirror.

"We were in the bottom three and then put a few results together and jumped to 10th. But from 10th downwards last year everyone was in a relegation scrap and that's not where we want to be.

"We've got two weeks to knuckle down and do what we need to do to become a proper team. Hopefully we can get another couple of signings in and enjoy this season.

"I hope we can [produce a more entertaining side], but winning games is entertaining enough. If you don't win games, you get relegated, it's as simple as that."
