Sam Allardyce admits West Ham job concerns

West Ham manager Sam Allardyce admits that this weekend's game against Norwich City will be a huge game for the managers of both teams. Chris Hughton's side hosts the Hammers under huge pressure after a 7-0 drubbing at the hands of Man City last weekend.

The Hammers are only two points away from Norwich in the league table, so the former Bolton and Newcastle manager admits the pressure is on.


"If Norwich beat us on Saturday he is in a much better position than I am and the pressure then comes on me," Allardyce said. "I'm not foolish, I know the pressure is on us all. I'm two points off Chris Hughton so it is a massive game for us both.


"I don't want to finish on Saturday and be below Norwich City because then the pressure reverts on to me and it is relieved on Chris Hughton."
