West Ham United striker Andy Carroll has backed the team to recover quickly from Saturday's defeat to Everton.
The Hammers saw their five-game unbeaten run in the Premier League come to an end at Goodison Park as they went down 2-1 to the Toffees.
Despite leaving Merseyside with nothing to show for their efforts, Carroll believes that the squad has the mental toughness to get their campaign back on track sooner rather than later.
"We played really well at Everton. We're just disappointed that we did play so well but we just conceded the first goal like we did, then conceded another one after we'd pulled it back level," he told the club's official website.
"It's really disappointing but all the lads are good lads and they'll get over it and move onto the next games."
West Ham continue their Premier League campaign this Saturday when they entertain Newcastle United.
