West Bromwich Albion midfielder Graham Dorrans insists West Ham United's summer pursuit hasn't rattled him.
Dorrans insists the transfer talk is not to blame for his poor form.
"West Ham was never a problem. I always set my stall out to come back here and start the season," he said.
"I signed my new contract and I am happy here. But I know I've not been at my best. I've missed a few games, other players have come in and done really well and the team have got good results when they have been in.
"It has been tough to get back into the side but I'll have to work hard in training and take my chances when they come along. I can't really put my finger on the reasons for it. I just need to get back to the form I was in last season."
