Aaron Cresswell insists Slaven Bilic has the full support of the West Ham dressing room, amid speculation the Hammers manager could be replaced in the summer.
The Hammers travel to relegation-threatened Hull City on Saturday off the back of three successive Premier League defeats and are without a win since February 4.
Co-chairman David Sullivan publicly apologised to the club's supporters following the 3-2 home defeat to Leicester on March 18 and insisted the next few games would be "vital" for their season.A report in the Sunday Mirror has since claimed Bilic could be replaced at the end of the campaign by Reading manager Jaap Stam, but Cresswell is backing the Croatian.
"If you ask any of the players, they would say the same, we are fully behind him and fully supportive of him. Hopefully we can turn it around and take that pressure off everyone," the left-back said
"He is positive and passionate about his job. He is bubbly around the place and wants to stay in a positive mood and, as players, that's what we want.
"There's no point being negative about the defeats that we've had."
Cresswell added: "Certainly all the lads here, the coaching staff and the manager, everyone is giving 110 per cent.
"Course it is not going right at the minute, we want to put that right on Saturday. We know we haven't been good enough, especially of late, and certainly we look forward to the Hull game.
"We're going to train hard for the next few days and prepare well for the game."
Meanwhile, Cresswell has revealed he would welcome England and Manchester United captain Wayne Rooney to the London Stadium.
Sky sources understand West Ham would be interested in signing Rooney if the forward is allowed to leave Old Trafford in the summer.
"He has arguably been one of the best strikers over the last 15 years and the things he has done, certainly for England, is fantastic," he said.
"If he was to come here, that would be fantastic for us, but who knows?"
