Lucas Paqueta has issued a resolute statement surrounding his commitment to West Ham.

“It was a difficult game,” said Paqueta after the match, as reported on the clubs Official Website. “But I think it’s a big and important point. I think we did very well. Now we have time to recover and work a lot, to improve and to play again next week.

“It was a difficult game but Bournemouth are a good team. They played very well against some of the biggest teams in the Premier League, but we did very well.”

The former Lyon midfielder also outlined his desire to see West Ham succeed and kick on under Julen Lopetegui, making a statement on his love for the club, who are standing firmly with him as he continues to battle betting allegations.

“I love to play here with West Ham,” added Paqueta. “I love the strengths [of the team] and I try to move and to improve, and with the coach we have the same way and work together.

“For me it’s very important to play. I like to play every day, every week, then I’m happy and I try to improve and now I’ll focus on the next game.”
