Sam Allardyce has said that his West Ham United side must find a "consistent level of performance" in order to be competitive in the Premier League.
The team have made a strong start to the season, winning seven of their first 14 matches to leave them fifth in the table, despite slipping to a 2-1 defeat to Everton last month.
Ahead of his side's match against Swansea City this weekend, the manager told reporters: "After the disappointment of Everton and bouncing back with two victories, we've got to maintain that level of performances and results.
"We've come through very well with our worst injury list at the moment and let's hope that they continue to stay fit in this period. A consistent level of performance is what's going to make us a really good side."
Allardyce also confirmed that he expects top scorer Diafra Sakho, who has been recovering from a shoulder injury, to be available for the match after training all week.
