Modibo Maiga: 'West Ham United staying positive'

West Ham United striker Modibo Maiga has insisted that the squad will remain positive as they look to turn their troubles around in the Premier League.

The Hammers are currently above the relegation zone on goal difference following Saturday's 3-0 defeat at home to Chelsea.

Despite the team's poor start to the season, Maiga believes that there is enough talent at Upton Park to see an upturn in fortunes.

"We'll keep working and keep our heads up," he told the club's official website. "We've got good players and we've got all that you need [to succeed] here. We'll be okay, it's going to come next time."

West Ham continue their Premier League campaign on Saturday when they play host to fellow strugglers Fulham.
