The two David's and SB have bought in 13 players and according to one source with the 5mill from Downing at an expenditure of just over 20mill. Nearly all of these players are first teamers with experience in the big leagues so the battle for first team places is going to be exciting to watch. With the eight or so players we have from last seasons window it shows the David's are really planning for the future and I for one am very excited. Being in Australia it's hard not to be jealous of all you supporters over there being able to go to the games especially this season as we draw closer to leaving our home at Upton Park but the move next season shows our intent to establish West Ham United as a force in the Premier league and that's fantastic for us supporters. I won't be able to get to any games this season but I have already started planning my holidays to come over for the first game at the Olympic stadium. Can't wait.
As a matter of interest I would like to know which of the new players excites the most , for me the ones that have played against Liverpool where fantastic but the one that impressed me the most was Lanzini, he never stopped running and his goal was a great way to show that he is here to play.Thoughts please .
yep , you just wonder how he
yep , you just wonder how he's goin to keep them all happy , by the way it might have slipped by me but what are they goin to call the new stadium? maybe they should leave it as the queen Elizabeth 11 stadium
Not sure Burkie
but to me it should be HAMMERS Stadium. Has a nice ring to it

If the pair of miserable old bastards had just bought anybody decent.
For me Payet is the stand out
For me Payet is the stand out player by a mile. Yes he is 28, so not in the first flush of youth, but when you look at what other players are selling for, he was HUGE value for money. I'm also excited by the quality of the youngsters we have just now, Oxford and Samuelsen particularly, but Josh Cullen also looks to have tremendous potential. Now we just need Slav and the players to gel together, and work out how to play at home! I still think there will be a bumpy transition period, with a few bad performances mixed in with a few great ones, but overall I'm convinced we will do well. COYI!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lanzini did look the biz v
Lanzini did look the biz v Loserpool alby ,boy is he fast, Bilic has compared him to David Silva with him and Payet , Attacking midfielders we've been craving at the club for some time.
