West Ham keeper Adrian to build on consecutive clean sheets

West Ham keeper Adrian is hoping to extend a run of four consecutive clean sheets as the Hammers continue to pull away from the drop zone. "It's only my job! It's my job to stop everything and Tuesday was a great day, because that's another clean sheet," the 27 year old told West Ham's official website.

"Four in a row is really, really difficult in the Premier League and I am really happy. We have to keep going in this direction.

"As a goalkeeper, when you have confidence, confidence in the manager and in the other players, you are happy on the pitch.

"Sometimes I have to help my team-mates and other times, not too much, but on Tuesday I made three or four saves to help the team.

"It's really, really amazing. The clean sheets are important for the team and it's even more important for me, because I'm the goalkeeper.

"I work every day with Marge [Martyn Margetson, goalkeeping coach], Jussi [Jaaskelainen], with Rafa [Raphael Spiegel], with Hendo [Stephen Henderson] on the training ground for that and this is my job."
