"On Tuesday, they let a 1-0 lead slip before losing 2-1 to fellow strugglers Nottingham Forest - a result that leaves the Hammers seven points adrift of safety with 17 games to go. "We will look to the mirror and know the position we are in, and nobody from the squad wants to play second division next season," said West Ham midfielder Tomas Soucek. "We have to show the honesty between each other. The truth of who cares and who not.""
"West Ham - who won a European trophy as recently as 2023, have had a wretched campaign - but their fans would have been hoping for some late presents with an attractive post-Christmas fixture list. Home games against Fulham, Brighton and Nottingham Forest and a trip to bottom-of-the-table Wolves were a chance for the Hammers to get themselves out of trouble."
"The stats make grim reading. With four draws and six losses, it is the first time West Ham have gone 10 Premier League games without a win since a run of 11 between December 2006 and March 2007. Only Bournemouth with 16 have dropped more top-flight points from winning positions than the Hammers' 15, while West Ham have also failed to win any of their past five matches when scoring"
West Ham have endured a wretched Premier League campaign, losing 2-1 at home to Nottingham Forest after surrendering a 1-0 lead, leaving them seven points adrift of safety with 17 games remaining. The Hammers have gone 10 league games without a win, their longest run since 2006-07, and have dropped 15 points from winning positions. Post-Christmas fixtures against Fulham, Brighton, Nottingham Forest and a trip to Wolves offered 12 potential points, but West Ham collected just one. The team conceded late winners, lost after scoring first in multiple matches, and face a significant battle to avoid relegation.
