As we preview the new Premier League season, we pick out five questions for West Ham.
What have they done in the transfer market?
West Ham have been busy and yet as recently as Thursday, manager Slaven Bilic was talking of bringing in five more players. Havard Nordveit has already come in to give more midfield options, left-back Arthur Masuaku has arrived from Olympiakos, but it's up front that the Hammers want more.
Andre Ayew has arrived from Swansea and more could yet follow. But whatever happens, winger Sofiane Feghouli can be counted upon to excite - he's joined from Valencia and helped light up West Ham's opening night at the former Olympic Stadium.
What does the manager say?
"When we talk about Champions League, Europa League, mid-table, it is all very dangerous," Slaven Bilic told the Daily Mail. "Make no mistake. I am a confident, over-optimistic person but apart from the top seven clubs on paper everybody is looking forward to 40 points."
What's the pundit verdict?
"I like West Ham and with their new stadium they should be playing Champions League football within four years because of the money they should turn over. I reckon they will finish around seventh this season." - Paul Merson
What's your prediction?
West Ham are 80/1 with Sky Bet to lift the Premier League title and are 8/1 to finish in the top four. At 2/5, they are odds-on to finish in the top half. Relegation is a 33/1 chance. As for the Premier League top goalscorer market, Andy Carroll is available at 66/1.
