West Ham fullback Ryan Fredericks is pleased with his start to the season.

The right-back has started all four Premier League matches, helping the Hammers to bounce back from an opening-day defeat by Manchester City with a draw at Brighton & Hove Albion and victories over Watford and Norwich City.

He told whufc.com, “It's really positive and the lads are feeling positive. We had a chance right at the end of the Brighton game to win that too, which would have made for a near-perfect start for us.

"We always knew the first game against Manchester City was going to be a tough one, but we've played well and played well in spells in every game, even Man City.

“As the games have gone on, we've defended better and better and finally we got our first clean sheet against Norwich."
