Intro:

Sam Allardyce is keen that his West Ham United players "enjoy the moment" of flying high in the Premier League after their 2-0 win over Leicester City at Upton Park on Saturday.

Andy Carroll and Stewart Downing scored the goals to keep West Ham in the top four of the Premier League and a Champions League spot for Christmas with Sam Allardyce's men recording their fourth win in their last five matches.

Leicester lie bottom of the table with Nigel Pearson's side now without a win in 12 games.

SOUNDBITE (English): Sam Allardyce, West Ham United manager

"We've had a very good day. It's been very difficult in terms of everybody expected us to win. Now everybody goes on because we have won. And that gives us a little bit of leeway, I think, for the next two that's coming up."

SOUNDBITE (English): Sam Allardyce, West Ham United manager

"I think that the end of January will tell us what we can possibly achieve and trying to stay where we are is an extremely difficult task because while you win a game in the lower end and you move up three or four places, if you win a game at this end and continue to win, you rarely get too far away from the other teams because they win as well. So it's about the consistency of winning and that is what we've got to challenge ourselves to try and do. You can't afford to slip up too many times, if you've played well and you don't win, because you'll end up slipping away and out of that elite end of this league. But at the moment we're living with it, we're enjoying it and the players who have applied themselves magnificently well all season now are reaping the rewards."

SOUNDBITE (English): Nigel Pearson, Leicester City manager

"I look around the dressing room and we've certainly got nobody who's given up any sort of a fight. They're really an outstanding group of people and we'll keep working until we find the answer."
