Tomas Soucek has stated that he is confident that West Ham will continue to improve this season after a somewhat slow start.
It certainly hasn’t been the start to the Julen Lopetegui era as some would have been hoping for, with the club sitting 14th in the Premier League table after just 1 win in 6 matches.
However the draw at Brentford at the weekend gives hope that a corner is now being turned as we head into a crucial match against Ipswich at the London Stadium this Saturday.
Soucek, who scored the leveller against the Bees after West Ham went behind in the opening minute of the game, has expressed his confidence for this season and his delught at the trust shown in him by Lopetegui.
“I’m happy that the manager has trust in me to go out and perform, and I’m happy that that the fans were out there singing my name,” Soucek told the clubs Official Website.
“This Club means a lot to me, and there is a great connection. I’ve been here nearly five years now, and I love being out there and scoring goals, and I hope there are many more to come
“We just have to keep pushing now, as a whole team. We’ve seen lots of different players involved so far this season, and the subs again made an impact in the second half. That’s healthy, and it means we all have to be ready to make an impact.
“We’ve had many changes recently, with the manager and the players. Obviously we would like to be higher in the table, but we still have lots to play for in the league and the FA Cup, and I’m confident we’ll keep improving. Next week is another big game, and we’ll all be pushing for a result before the international break.”
West Ham host Ipswich this Saturday which is seen as a must-win encounter for many, and fans have the chance to have a flutter on the outcome, as well as many other games this weekend.
