West Ham United managed to beat Southampton 3-0 in their last outing.

Mark Noble of West Ham United looks on during a Pre Season Friendly between Manchester City and West Ham United at the Laugardalsvollur stadium on August 4, 2017 in Reykjavik, Iceland.

Mark Noble has told West Ham United’s official website that he spoke in the dressing room, before his side took on Southampton last weekend.

West Ham went into the game under severe pressure to pick up the three points, following a defeat to Burnley on their last outing.

However, the Hammers responded well to the added pressure of playing at the London Stadium.

And Noble said: “I said to them before we went out ‘this is our home stadium, so let’s play like we’re at home’ and we did that.

“We’ve got four more home games and if the atmosphere is like it was on Saturday and the players put that much effort and determination in, I’m hoping we can play like we did against Southampton, like I know we can play, and pick up more points.”

West Ham put in one of their best performances of the season to beat Southampton, and looked comfortable throughout.

Joao Mario set the Hammers on their way, before two goals from Marko Arnautovic sealed the three points.

David Moyes’ side have now taken a massive step closer to safety, with the victory.

West Ham had been looking nervously over their shoulders, but there is now a significant gap between them at the bottom three.

West Ham are next in action at the weekend, when they take on Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
