There are ongoing speculations at London Stadium about Declan Rice’s long-term future.
The midfielder highlighted the need for West Ham players to ‘play for the badge,’ after their thumping 4-0 victory over Wolves.
“After Newcastle, as I was standing here, thinking we couldn’t play any weaker,” Rice told BBC Sport.
“We have had a huge response for two weeks in a row now.”
“It should have been 6 or 7-0 easily. I’m buzzing about that result. Our boss tested the COVID positively, and then the backroom team took over. I can’t be any happier for workers tonight.”
“All the time, we show in the major tournaments. Competing for this badge… that’s what the fans expect.”
