West Ham defender Angelo Ogbonna says the club has turned its toxic atmosphere around from three years ago, despite the fear of relegation looming large this season.
The 34-year-old defender has made 226 appearances across eight years at the club, which has seen him emerge as a vice captain, survive a relegation scare in the 2019/20 season, overcome a nine-month cruciate ligament injury to now competing for a European trophy.
Ogbonna believes West Ham's shortcomings this season are due to the club going through a 'transition' period, where the defender makes a comparison to Jurgen Klopp's early stages in charge at Liverpool.
