Andy Carroll said West Ham were eyeing European football after scoring in a 3-0 win at home to Hull on Sunday that took the Hammers into seventh place in the Premier League table. Second-half goals from Carroll, Morgan Amalfitano and Stewart Downing secured all three points for the east London club in front of the Upton Park home crowd following a run of four games without a win.
Defeat saw Hull - punished for failing to take advantage of their early chances - remain in the bottom three, still a point from safety. Asked if West Ham could qualify for Europe, England striker Carroll told Sky Sports: "There's a belief in the dressing room, I don't see why not. "We haven't had a win in the last few games but we've had the performances that can take us up to the top."
