I want to concentrate and give everything and all the players will prepare well to win the game.

The Hammers are looking to win three successive Premier League away games for the first time since September 2007.
West Ham United is tenth in the league with 6 points having won 2 games and lost 2.
West Ham United hope to continue their recent giant-killing feats when they take on Manchester City at the weekend, but manager Slaven Bilic does not expect Manuel Pellegrini’s side to suffer a dip in confidence after losing to Juventus in midweek.
“David had a kick in his calf and he tried in the warm-up but he felt his muscle was stiff so he didn’t play”.
Sakho might have had another after racing onto a Dimitri Payet ball but Eliaquim Mangala made a vital tackle.
Aguero, who endured a frustrating 45 minutes in front of goal, set up De Bruyne to send a crisp, low strike beyond Adrian from the edge of the box.
Buoyed by that late first-half goal, City stormed forward at the start of the second and were nearly camped outside the West Ham area.
West Ham nearly delivered a real sucker punch just before the hour when Payet slipped Sakho into the clear, but as Hart stormed out to meet him, the striker could only poke his effort across the face of goal.
“He has done it in the top league in a top club like Marseille, so there is no reason he can’t do it, but Silva has done it week in week out for four years at City”.
Adrian reacted superbly as Winston Reid nearly turned a Navas cross into his own net before Toure had a venomous strike blocked and a bustling run into the box curtailed by the goalkeeper.

Earlier in the day champions Chelsea halted their nosedive down the table when they beat an Arsenal side, who finished with nine men, 2-0 at Stamford Bridge thanks to goals from Kurt Zouma and Eden Hazard. West Ham players were lining up in the box to tap it in.
