3. West Ham crash back to reality
After winning 2-0 at Arsenal on the opening day, West Ham fans had real hope that the Slaven Bilic era could give them that competitive push that they so desire.
However, they crashed back down to earth in their first home game, as Claudio Ranieri‘s buoyant Leicester took the spoils at Upton Park.
It’s too early to say whether or not Bilic can improve West Ham, but he certainly has made some shrewd signings and some interesting and positive decisions.
New acquisition Dimitri Payet seems a top player, he looked classy on the ball at the Emirates and scored during the home defeat to the Foxes.
Bilic’s faith in 16-year old Reece Oxford is also refreshing to see and it will be interesting to see how the Hammers respond to their Leicester loss.
