"We are positive, the players are positive, and I hope the fans are positive to us on Saturday," Roeder told the clubs official website.
"If we play like we can play, and get the fans on our side, they can be a big factor at Upton Park.

"We have a little more strength in depth than last year and that makes it all the more frustrating that we have only picked up one point after five games."
SQUAD: James, Van der Gouw, Schemmel, Pearce, Repka, Dailly, Winterburn, Breen, Cole, Sinclair, Cisse, Carrick, Minto, Garcia, Lomas, Di Canio, Kanoute, Defoe, Camara.
