Upson adamant West Ham too good to go down

Matthew Upson is adamant West Ham United are good enough to stay up.

The Hammers face Sunderland on Sunday on the back of their 2-2 draw at Everton.

"There are not many hours of football left. It is down to us to get ourselves ready," Upson told whufc.com. "We are fully aware of the situation, what is needed from us and will put everything together to do what we have to do.

"We are good enough. We will build on this as I said, go again this week, build up a good strategy for the next game ahead and then go out there as a team together to commit to it. Then, if we deliver the performance this can bring, then I am confident we can win the game against Sunderland."

Although the club are in the driving seat and have their fate in their own hands, Upson said there was no point taking comfort from the league table.

"It is very important obviously, but at this stage, it is neither here or there. The most important thing is where we are come 9 May. We know there is plenty of work still left to do."
