West Ham boss Bilic on sack talk: I think I've some credit...

West Ham boss Slaven Bilic accepts his job is in danger after their thrashing by Arsenal.

Alexis Sanchez dominated the 5-1 scoreline with a hat-trick.

Bilic said: “It's your job to ask me that and it's a normal question in this kind of situation, where the expectations are higher than the situation we are in.

“I'm a very positive, open person and try to be open and honest. I am very optimistic and will never give up. I am positive I can turn this around.

“Do I enjoy to be in this situation? No. Do I feel pressure? Yeah, but I don't want to feel like I'm feeling now. Am I positive? Yes I am. Did I do enough last season to get some credit? I think I did.

“At the same I'm 48 and have been in football for 30 years so I know how it works in football, and I have absolutely no problem with that.

“Do I like my job? Yes, I like it."
