West Ham United midfielder Mark Noble says they must bounce back from their friendly thumping by Mainz.

West Ham play three games in their tour of Germany and Noble expects them to get stronger with every match they play.

Noble told whufc.com: "It was not the best result in the world on Saturday but it is about getting fit in these games

"We came to Germany last year and had a similar turnout when we'd come on the back of four wins. We're finding our feet and some of the lads played 75 minutes, so it was a brilliant workout, exactly what we needed and now we're looking forward to the next one against Hamburg.

"I was hoping to play the full 90 to get the fitness under my belt, but they decided to give me 75 minutes and hopefully I'll play my part in the next couple of games.

"These German sides are good. They're technically very good and drilled really well. It was a good workout for the lads. No-one likes losing, even in pre-season, but the result won't come into it."
