West Ham United manager Manuel Pellegrini has vowed not to change his side’s style despite losing three consecutive matches in the Premier League, according to a report on the Evening Standard.
The Hammers have endured a disastrous start to the league campaign, falling to defeats against Liverpool, Bournemouth and Arsenal.
Pellegrini wants his team to play free-flowing attacking football but that style has left them vulnerable at the back.
West Ham were arguably the better side on Saturday against Arsenal but they were punished for missing several chances to put the game to bed.
Pellegrini is adamant that his style will pay off eventually. He said:
You can never enjoy a 3-1 defeat but for the most part, I think we created chances, we played as a big team and played in the opposite side [of the pitch], not just playing for a result because we played against Arsenal away.
It is a style that this team will continue to play in the future and I am absolutely sure and I hope that the fans also continue to support because the team is in the current way and we are going to win more than we lose.
After making several signings over the summer, the Hammers were expected to make a good start to the season but they are currently pointless, with their next league fixture being against Wolves at the London Stadium.
