West Ham United have won just one Premier League match all season.

Junior Stanislas has told the Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast, which was broadcast on TalkSPORT on 26th September, that West Ham United will turn things around this season.

Stanislas broke through at West Ham as a youngster, and still keeps a keen eye on his former side’s progress.

The Bournemouth attacking midfielder has had to watch on, as the Hammers have made an awful start to the new campaign.

However, Stanislas has faith that Slaven Bilic will be able to turn their form around in the near future.

“They have bought quite a few players,” he said, when analysing why the Hammers are struggling. “They had a fantastic season last year, and I’m sure they’ll pick up. They will like to do that as soon as possible, though.”

West Ham are currently stuck in 18th place in the Premier League table, and their performances seem to be getting worse rather than better.

Bilic’s side were hammered by Southampton at the London Stadium in their latest fixture, which they lost 3-0.

Bilic is now the bookies’ favourite to be the next Premier League manager to be sacked, with the pressure mounting on the Croatian.

West Ham are next in action at the weekend, with a match against Middlesbrough next up.
