Stanislas insists West Ham players fully behind Grant

West Ham United midfielder Junior Stanislas says the players are behind manager Avram Grant.

Stanislas rescued a point at Blackburn Rovers and, when you have only taken eight from a possible 75 on your travels, anything is gratefully received.

The winger said: "Everyone is fully behind the manager. People might think the team spirit is not the best because we're bottom of the league.

"But everyone is pulling together, just trying to stick together and get out of it.

"Being bottom at Christmas doesn't sound good but the belief is there and it has to be if we want to get out of it.

"It's not a mood of disappointment because we've come away from home to a difficult place and got something from the game.

"The manager just said go on and try and get a goal and I got us a point near the end.

"But we really felt we could have had all three."
