Whats the majic ingredient

I cant get my head around the metamorphosis in west ham ,they seem to have gone from a dull bunch of losers last year to a bright entertaining team that are fast becoming the club that no one wants to play ,so whats your views ?,i know its early and maybe it wont be possible to keep up this level of spectacular
football ,so whats the reason and how long will it last .
Is it :one or two outstanding players ,
A great management team ,
The no fans element,
new found determination on the part of the team ,
Increased energy levels ,
A desire to prove the media (who had us in the championship already) wrong ,
Finally found a formation that suits everybody ,
We finally have a striker that can cause havoc and get a shed load of goals ,
Could it be their finally enjoying life in the concrete fish bowl.
I for one cant figure it out ,i do know that every time i see Rice i am amazed at how he is turning into a worl class player ,and how Ant should have been playing striker all his life ,and at how Souchec and Bowen have slotted in so well and even Massu and his runs with the ball from wide deep position's are slometimes mesmerising ,that Cress maybe getting a second wind in a defence that a lot of people had writen off but in the last 2 games have shown a resiliency bordering on outstanding, its as if they love playing together ,they hate the middle of the week when theres no game .
If you look at teams with expensive players ,like for instance Wolves ,and look at our boys with no one coming in you have to think maybe ,just maybe the board were right to say enough ,we spent massively last season and where did it get us ?,fact is even if you bought in new players where would you play them ?.
You could see the pride in Ant and Bowens faces when they walked off together last night.
I like everyone dont know how long this will last but i know im going to enjoy it while it does .
