West Ham United captain Mark Noble insists the players have got to stay positive and make amends for the disappointing home defeat against Watford on Saturday.
The Hammers were in pole position to win the game after Michail Antonio had scored a brace in the opening 33 minutes.
But Watford managed to score two late goals in the first half to draw level and then went on to win the game comfortably in the second half.
Despite the disappointment, Noble says the players will be doing everything to get straight back on the winning trail and hopes the return of key players such as Dimitri Payet and Manuel Lanzini can help them get another positive result when they travel to play West Brom on Saturday.
Noble said: “That is the best we have played for a long while, in the first half. A couple of mistakes have cost us and we couldn't recover.
“If we can go in 2-0 up at half-time it is a different game, but the mistakes have cost us in the end.
“There is a long way to go and we have to stay positive.
“We got punished and have to learn our lessons. We have still got new players coming in learning the league and we have a lot of players in their second season
“We have got players coming back from injury like Manu and Dimi. We have got to take the positives and played fantastic in the first half, but we conceded silly goals.”
