The Hammers are currently 18th and two points behind Tottenham with only two games remaining.

With only games against Newcastle and Leeds left to go, and just two points between West Ham and Tottenham, Santo was acutely aware that the relegation battle will go right down to the wire.
“We knew a while ago it would go down to the wire. What we have to do is compete well against Newcastle, so we still have a chance. They are a very good team, and it’s going to be tough. But we are ready, and we have belief.
