West Ham are set to have a busy January following their awful start to the season.
After spending in excess of £50 million during the summer, the Hammers find themselves still resting in 18th position in the Premier League, having won only two of their 11 top flight games so far.
Former manager Slaven Bilic would have been putting together a Christmas wish-list ahead of the January transfer window in order to help ensure his side’s survival, but any such list of course went out of the window when he was sacked earlier in the month.
In comes David Moyes: a new man, with a new plan and alongside it almost certainly a list of players he would like to bring to the London Stadium.
Moyes, formerly of Everton, Manchester United, Sunderland and more, has built a reputation over the years of relying on familiar faces when he joins a new club, with a host of his former players seemingly following him from club to club.
West Ham fans are worried the same might happen again this time around …
Baines, Jagielka, Hibbert, Pienaar, Howard, Tim Cahill all linked to West Ham.
