​Ogbonna expects West Ham to respond against Bournemouth

Ogbonna confident West Ham have quality to bounce back

Angelo Ogbonna is certain West Ham United will quickly respond to a 4-0 defeat at Liverpool.

The defender saw some positive signs in the Hammers' convincing loss at Anfield and has no doubt they will prove it against Bournemouth on Saturday.

"Liverpool is a good team who want to compete this season, and there are not a lot of negatives to talk about because it is the first game and I think we showed that we have quality," Ogbonna said to West Ham's website.

"We had our chances in the first half, but we didn't score, and they were clinical with their chances

"The second goal was crucial, because we were really close to getting in at half time at 1-0 and we didn't want to concede the goal at that time.

"But we've got a long season and we have very positive things to talk about. We have a really good dressing room, we have signed good players and I saw good things on Sunday. We have to be positive.

"We have to be all together for the next game at home to Bournemouth. It's important to bounce back and we are positive for that."
