Vincent Kompany’s pre-match comments

“The way we are, the way this club is, we always keep going.

“The toughest part is the moment after the game but afterwards you always look at how you need to prepare yourself for the next game. It requires all that attention.

“Yes, it’s tough but I’m confident because of this period of time we will get better and we will become stronger out of it.

“I know when you don’t have the points and we have a couple of bad performances, like we did against Arsenal and Crystal Palace, it creates a very different narrative and picture to what has actually been going on for a long time.

“Like against Bournemouth, we’ve had some very good performances but we’ve come short in areas of the game you can’t underestimate, which is both boxes. That’s the truth for us this year, but it also reflects on the league.”

West Ham: Areola, Coufal, Mavropanos, Zouma, Cresswell, Soucek, Alvarez, Ward-Prowse, Paqueta, Kudus, Bowen
