West Ham United captain Mark Noble admits the 4-1 defeat against Tottenham hurts the players the most this season but they have vowed to put things right when they face West Brom next weekend.
After recording memorable away wins over Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City this season, Slaven Bilic's side failed to hit the same standards at White Hart Lane.
Two goals from Harry Kane helped Tottenham record a 4-1 victory and not even a late strike from Manuel Lanzini could help lift the spirits of the travelling supporters.
Noble admits it could have been a different game if Cheikhou Kouyate's scissor kick had gone in minutes after Tottenham's opener, but says they want to get the defeat out of their system quickly and get straight back on the winning trail in the next home game.
Noble said: “This defeat hurts us the most because it is a London derby. We have been on the winning side a lot over the last few years.
“They scored from a set play in the first half and we were not out of the game at that point. We had a couple of chances ourselves and Cheikhou hit the crossbar.
“If that chance goes in it is a different game. But when you go 2-0 down in a London derby it is tough to come back from.
“But they scored straight after half-time and that made it virtually impossible for us. It was a disappointing day.
“Goals at home can lift the crowd and when Harry Kane scored it made life that much harder for us. The third goal really killed us and it was sloppy play from us.
“But we need to put this behind us and look forward to West Brom which is another game on television and put things right.”
