Sakho insists West Ham success no fluke

West Ham United striker Diafra Sakho is confident their early season success is no fluke.

Sakho believes his side can follow up their impressive 2-1 victory against Premier League champions Manchester City by stringing a run of wins together in their upcoming games.

"The run goes on for all of us, the whole team," he said. "We know that after Saturday there's still a long, long way to go - as I always say - but we're trying to bag all the points that we can.

"We're trying to keep it going and that's really pleasing. My team-mates on Saturday inspired me and so I dream big. When it ends, I'll accept that. But we're going to slog away to continue it.

"Saturday was great. To play at home in front of our fans, that spurs us all on to aim high and we'll carry on right until the end so that it will be the stuff of dreams for all the fans who came to watch us every week."
