West Ham fullback Aaron Cresswell says they must bounce back after defeat at home to Everton.

It marked a third consecutive defeat for the Hammers.

"It was tough," Cresswell told whufc.com. “We've been in spells like this in many seasons and we've just got to stick together and get through it.

“One win changes everything again and we've got to stay positive, get back to the training ground, do what we do there and focus on the next game now.

“We've had some tough games, Aston Villa away, Olympiacos away, they're not easy games, and yes, we could have been better today.

“We lacked that cutting edge in the final third, the goal we conceded was sloppy and like I said, we've got to get back to the training ground and put it right."

He added, “We had a fantastic start to the season and have done extremely well at times this season. We've had a blip now, but we have to stay positive and stick together."
