Having to rely on the generosity of our north London rivals will surely grate on some Hammers fans, however, Alan Pardew has never been backward in coming forward!

The manager's dealings in the transfer market have been restricted by the obvious tied purse strings from the board. Now though, Malky Mackay, Teddy Sheringham and Christain Daily have joined or will soon be joining the fray! That's a lot of talent, and their experience will surely help stabilise the younger squad members in the run up to the end of the season.

Who knows? maybe just maybe ol' blue eyes might just get to have a premiership swansong!
