West Ham United have struggled in recent weeks, and have taken just two points from their last four Premier League outings.

Hammers co-owner David Sullivan pleaded with the club’s fans to show their full support for the players on Saturday, for their crucial game against Leicester City, when writing his regular column for the club’s official website.
West Ham have been well below par in recent weeks, and their 3-2 defeat to Bournemouth yesterday was their fourth game in a row without a win – a result that leaves them just nine points clear of 18th placed Hull City.
And with the Foxes just six points adrift of Slaven Bilic’s men, with a game in hand, Saturday’s clash will be of paramount importance to the Hammers’ season.
They must ensure that they arrest their recent slide sooner rather than later, if they are to avoid being dragged into a relegation scrap.
And Sullivan urged the West Ham faithful to get behind their team against Craig Shakespeare’s side next weekend, when writing his regular column for WHUFC.com:
West Ham United manager Slaven Bilic
“We have a week to prepare for our next game at home to Leicester City and I really urge you to give everything you can to support the team at London Stadium, as it is a massive game for us.”
Whilst Bilic will be the one who bears the brunt of the criticism, it is the Hammers players who must roll their sleeves up and produce the goods for their manager.
They have severely underperformed in recent weeks, and they owe the Croatian a big performance against Leicester on Saturday.
