West Ham United boss Slaven Bilic says that he is prepared to make unpopular decisions if he believes they are the right ones for the club.

West Ham United manager Slaven Bilic has admitted that he will make unpopular decisions if he believes they are the right ones for the club.

The 49-year-old has guided the Hammers to seven points from as many games this season but has twice found himself roundly booed by fans, with some calling for a change in management.

Javier Hernandez also appeared unhappy to be replaced during the 1-0 win over Swansea City but Bilic pledged to stick by his decisions at the risk of upsetting both players and fans.

"It's better to be clapped than booed, but at the end of the day I have to trust my decisions," the Croat told Sky Sports News. "Those decisions gave us what we wanted. But it doesn't have to be that the next time we will make the same decision.

"Nobody is [undroppable], as a manager a big part of your job is to make decisions. Is it before a game? Is it during training? Are they football decisions or non-football decisions because of the group of people you are leading?

"The game decisions are very important ones. They are crucial. In the last game me and my staff took the decision because it was the right decision to make. We don't know how it will end; you never know, but it ended really good."

Up next for West Ham is a Premier League away game at Burnley on Saturday.
