Their summer transfer window was excellent

Few clubs actually had a better transfer window in the summer than West Ham.

The best time to really judge the business done in the summer is before the January transfer window – and the Hammers pass with flying colours.

Players like Song, Valencia and Sakho have added so much to the side – and they now play some pretty ok football because of this.

The only thing they really need to do is secure the long term future of loan star Alex Song but that may have to wait until the summer.
