West Ham defender Winston Reid denies attitude problems

West Ham defender Winston Reid insists there's no attitude problems amongst the squad.

Irons co-chairman David Sullivan questioned manager Slaven Bilic and the players after defeat at Bournemouth.

But Reid told whufc.com: “No, no, no. I promise you, if you could see the way we have been training, because the fans don't get to see that. We have been working really hard, the boys are fit, doing a lot of training and everyone is working hard.

“So I think we have been a bit naïve lately in some ways. You know before you come away from home that the crowd is going to be up for it. Bournemouth were in a tough position so they were going to come out of the blocks quick, you know it, it is simple.

“You have to match them and if you don't do that… It is not like we are playing different systems, we pretty much matched them up. But in the first half they won all the second balls and when they came forward they were overlapping and everything. We have to work together and work as a unit and if you don't do that, you get found out."
