West Ham United have been busy and will continue to be busy for the rest of the transfer window, but will it be enough?

The Hammers have had am embarrassing start to the season and they have been forced to act in the final few days of the transfer market – Mateus Fernandes and Soungoutou Magassa are currently having their medicals, and rumours of Quentin Timber and Victor Boniface are heating up and the club are also targeting another central defender.

If we do manage to get three midfielders with legs in, a new striker and a central defender the squad will be in a much better squad than it currently is, but it remains to be seen if it would be enough for Graham Potter to turn things around.

However, it’s really good to see the board backing the manager now, but it raises the question, why didn’t we just do it earlier? I think it highlights exactly what David Sullivan’s goals are for the club at the moment, he wants to do the bare minimum to stay in the Premier League. We’ve only started acting now because we’ve become one of the favourites for the drop.

But the fact we are doing it is promising and I do believe it will really help us. We obviously have problems all over the pitch, but the midfield is where our biggest problems lie, and is the heartbeat of the team. If we manage to swap Rodriguez and Ward-Prowse to Magassa and Fernandes, with Timber an option of the bench, I can see our team improving massively.

If it doesn’t improve, I think it further confirms Potter isn’t the man for a job, and there is definitely managers out there that could make this squad with the potential 4/5 more incomings a whole lot better than we’re performing right now.
