West Ham United midfielder Mark Noble says the players are fully behind manager Gianfranco Zola's style of play.

Zola refuses to go route one, despite their relegation battle this season.

"We haven't got the players to just go back-to-front and win headers," Noble told the Sunday Mirror. "We got praise for the way we played last season and we have actually played as well this season. But things just haven't gone our way. We have been ahead in games like Hull, Fulham and Sunderland and not won. We didn't deserve to lose to Liverpool.

"If we had those points we would we well away from the bottom. But it is important that we look forward to the games ahead, not what has gone. And we will continue playing our way.

"The manager is never going to make us boot the ball up the field. The dressing room is fine, no problem. We train well every day. But we know we have to tighten up. I mean, we were beating Burnley 5-0 and then let in three goals in the last five minutes. Then you get a boo when you leave the field!

"You think you are going to have to score five goals to win a game! There is no doubt in my mind, though, that we can get out of this. No doubt - not with the players we have. And we know we have to buck up our ideas. We are going to have to stand up, every one of us."
