The Hammers suffered a 2-1 defeat by Everton in their last Barclays Premier League outing which has left them in the bottom three of the table.

With only two league wins under their belt this season, West Ham are in danger of slipping into a relegation battle at this early stage of the campaign.

Parker is frustrated with the timing of the international break which means the Hammers will have to wait a while longer to put things right.

beat everyone

"I don't think it's a good time to have a break," said Parker. "We're playing some good stuff and in the position we're in we want to kick on.

"We obviously need to get on the training field and work on what we need to do and get a result at Hull. It's a massive game for us but I think every game this year is going to be massive. It's not happening for us at times - we're playing well but not picking up results. We're going to have to bounce back at Hull now.

"The league is tight this year. Everyone seems to be able to beat everyone. Sunday was not the best of results for us by any means and we didn`t deserve it, but there are lots of positives we can take from it.

"We had a good win in the week over Aston Villa and we wanted to build on that. This happened to us last year when the manager came in and we had a run of results which we did not really deserve. We can get out of it. We have got too much quality in this squad."
