Slaven Bilic says he is "not bothered" by speculation over his future as he approaches the final year of his West Ham deal.
Bilic is yet to be offered a new contract at the club a year after joint-chairman David Sullivan said he would delay a decision until the Hammers boss proved he is not "a one-season wonder".
West Ham finished seventh last season with a Premier League-record 62 points, but a run of three wins from 11 games in 2017 has left them in the bottom half.
Sullivan apologised to supporters after this month's defeat to Leicester and said an upturn in results was "vital" heading into away games at Hull and Arsenal.
But Sky sources say Bilic still has the board's backing, and ahead of the Hull game he said: "It doesn't worry me, I don't read about it, I'm not making phone calls or whatever.
"I'm in my job, I am happy and we're in a position where we can have a good finish to the season. We can climb up a few places if we win games, we can go a few places down if we don't win games.
"Even in that good period, when you or whoever were talking about a new contract, I said we were not finished and there were a lot of games to play.
"I am not bothered [about the speculation] to be fair. I was telling you the same last season and earlier this season when you were talking about a new contract.
"My head is clear and I am totally motivated and focused. I've been here long enough to know what to do - over a year and a half - with an objective here and there is still a job to do and I have my contract.
"At the end of the day my contract is not running out. I have another year here."
Mark Noble is back in the squad for the Hull game, but Michail Antonio's hamstring injury will keep him out and Diafra Sakho is not ready despite returning to training after a back operation.
