Manchester United defender Marcos Rojo insists they can quickly start climbing the table.

While Rojo shares the general feeling that United are playing well, as evidenced in Thursday's Europa League victory over Feyenoord, he accepts the team need to build on that and put a winning run together.

“We've deserved to win our last few games at home because we were the better team, but we didn't come away with the wins, which was disappointing," the Argentina international told MUTV before the Feyenoord clash.

“It's an important game [against West Ham] to keep ourselves in the hunt. Winning would put us in a good position heading towards the Christmas period, where games come thick and fast – things can change a lot during that time.

“It's a very competitive league that changes constantly. We're a bit of a distance away from the top but the team is in good shape and we're playing well."
