West Ham United defender James Collins has called on his teammates to cut out any individual errors if they want to stay in the Premier League.

The Hammers are currently above the relegation zone by virtue of goal difference following Saturday's 3-0 defeat at home to Chelsea.

"It has been happening a bit too often, individual mistakes, myself included, as well as everyone," he told the club's official website.

"It's something we've got to look at, we've got to stop the rot somewhere and it doesn't come any bigger than next Saturday [against Fulham]."

West Ham welcome fellow strugglers Fulham to Upton Park on November 30.
