Mark Noble knows West Ham United's squad would break up if they were relegated.

Midfielder Noble, himself, admits he could seek a move away should they go down.

"Staying in the league is critical. Rob Green is England's No 1, and he won't want to play in the Championship. Fabio Capello won't want him to, either," he told the People.

"It all comes down to whether we stay up, because when clubs go down they need money. If you have the players we have then clubs will want to buy them. That will be the case.

"This club is too good to go down and I honestly think we will get through this. I keep telling the lads we that will stay up."
