David Moyes hopes to get more out of his current group of players, but says that he will delve into the transfer market if West Ham United 'continue to struggle'.

West Ham United manager David Moyes has revealed that he expects to be given funds to bring in new players if required in the January transfer window.

The Hammers are embroiled in a Premier League relegation battle after winning just two of their 14 matches so far this season.

Moyes, who has overseen two defeats and a draw in his three games since replacing Slaven Bilic in the London Stadium hotseat, says that his first priority is to get the best out of the group of players available to him.

"They told me when I came that if things were needed in January then it would be possible to do so," Sky Sports News quotes him as saying. "But I said last week, and I'm saying again that I am focusing on the players here. I have to try and get a team from what we have in the squad.

"We want to get a winning team from what we've got and if we are struggling to find that then we might have to find other people who can do that. It will be difficult because I've only been here two or three weeks. I do expect the staff that work here and who work it that department (transfers) will have plenty of people to look at and recommend.

"If it gets nearer the time and I think it's needed I'll go myself and see them. I see the players here having a strong mentality and a fighting spirit amongst them to make things right. I can only harp back to small things.

"It's individual lapses that cost us in recent games. I'm focusing on the players here. We have to get a winning team from what we've got in the squad."

West Ham's most recent victory came against Swansea City on September 30 - eight matches ago - when Diafra Sakho scored the only goal of the game late on.
