The Hammers lost their most highly rated player to Marseille in January but have won three of four league games since he was dropped from the team
Slaven Bilic has hailed the response his West Ham side have produced in the weeks after losing Dimitri Payet to Marseille.
Payet refused to play for the Hammers in January as he looked to force through a move to the Ligue 1 side, eventually getting his wish in a £25 million deal.
A number of West Ham players have spoken of a greater togetherness in the dressing room in the wake of the Frenchman's departure, and Bilic has praised his side for not 'sinking' without the guile and creativity of the one-time Irons icon.
