WEST HAM winger Junior Stanislas is confident the team can turn their fortunes around and climb out of trouble.

Stanislas was in the side that lost to Manchester City 3-1 on Saturday; a result that keeps the Hammers at the foot of the Premier League table.

But he has called on the players to keep the faith as they battle to escape the relegation zone.

“The belief is still there but we just need a little spark to get us going again,” he said.

“The belief has to be there. When you start losing belief you start losing your way. Little ricochets and decisions that go against you, that’s just part of football. You just have to do what you do and affect the game that way.

“It was a disappointing result (against City) but we have Blackburn next week and the next few games are definitely games we can get points from so hopefully we can start picking them up.”
