Aaron Cresswell has admitted his West Ham side are 'really down' and their 'confidence is low' ahead of their huge game against Everton this weekend.
Both Everton and West Ham are currently in the relegation zone heading into Saturday’s game at the London Stadium. Both clubs are on the same number of points with just goal difference separating them.
The Hammers have taken just one point from their last seven games and that has led to calls for a change in manager. One report on Wednesday afternoon claimed that David Moyes faces being sacked if his side are beaten this weekend.

Everton, on the other hand, will head into the game on the back of a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Southampton on Saturday afternoon. Members of the Blues’ squad were booed off at Goodison Park while some supporters sang 'you're not fit to wear the shirt' at Frank Lampard’s side.
"We're really down, our confidence is low,” Cresswell revealed. “But look we've been in worse situations over the years. We have to keep fighting, we're halfway through the season. We have to keep believing.
"We've been sloppy all over the park and that's why we're in this situation. But we have to stick together. We have to keep playing positive football. We have to get to the training room and work on this.
"We have big leaders in the dressing room, no-one is shying away. We shouldn't be here on the back of the last two seasons, but the reality is we're here. We can't start focusing on other teams. We have to focus on us and stick together and keep fighting."
