(Reuters) - West Ham United back-up goalkeeper Adrian believes he has not been given a chance to prove himself this season but is determined to fight for a place in the starting line-up.

Adrian was second choice to Darren Randolph last season, featuring in 19 of West Ham's 46 games, and the 30-year-old has been relegated to a reserve role again this campaign following the arrival of England international Joe Hart on loan.
