West Ham manager Slaven Bilic says his side were "not good" in their 1-0 win over Hull, but insists the points are most important.
The Hammers climbed to 13th after picking up a second win on the trot at London Stadium, meaning they have seven points from their last three games.
Mark Noble's penalty 14 minutes from time was enough for the Hammers, but Bilic was frank about his side's performance.
"It's a great three points for us. It was a very nervous game. First half we just weren't there enough for a Premier League game. We weren't good," he said.
"For a long period it looked like they deserved something. We weren't good. But in the last half-hour we stepped up a gear and our pressure got the penalty.
"At the end of the day I'd love to have played better but these last couple of games were all about results.
"We got six points out of them and that was the objective. Especially last half an hour, we stepped up a gear and found ourselves in good positions on the pitch.
It is the Hammers' first back-to-back league wins at their new stadium, and Bilic says the victory will give them momentum and more confidence going into the Christmas period.
"It is important, we showed the character and a good second half, but the most important thing out of this game is to win it.
"We have climbed a bit, but we should now have more confidence and we should not play much more free after these seven points from the three games.
"Now it should give us confidence. We are still not in the position we would like to be in, but it's much better than it was a week ago."
"It wasn't good enough. We put ourselves in many 'oh my God situations'. I would like us to play better but these couple of games [Burnley and Hull] were all about results."
