With the transfer window closed, no more incomings are anticipated, and, fortunately, the hundreds of lucid rumours have been put to bed, so we’ve been cracking on with the Football.

Towards the closing stages of the transfer window, Nuno managed to eke out two more signings on deadline day, leaving the Hammers with an almost entirely covered squad, dependent on possible outgoings in the final days of the other leagues around the world.

The two positions in question are a striker and a midfielder.

Initially, this article was going to be called ‘Derby Domination’ but courtesy of the final few minutes, demolition as the title now works and the truth is, the stats show it too.

The Hammers secured back-to-back wins in the Championship, scoring a combined seven goals in just two games.

The Hammers utterly dominated Derby this afternoon. The first goal was simply chalk and cheese. A great header by Taty and it’s a striker's dream for Piroe. A duo upfront working well with one another… I don’t believe it!
