In less than a month we’ll all be back in a familiar routine.
After what was a splendidly entertaining World Cup, in Russia, we’ll all be sampling the delights of the new Premier League season.
With the Hammers having been very active in the transfer market, bringing in seven new faces at the time of writing, it’ll certainly be interesting to see how the side starts.
Naturally, it may take time for the team to gel as Manuel Pellegrini beds in those summer arrivals.
However, behind the scenes, the changes being undertaken by the boss have seen several of the first-team squad take to the social network media to leave a few enticing comments.
Here at Vital West Ham, we’ve selected the following one, from Arthur Masuaku, which perfectly illustrates how the anticipation levels, at the club, are growing;
Masuaku: “The new players bring an addition and a plus to the team, and I think it is what we needed. For everyone it is an exciting time. Every player wants to show their best – this manager is one of the biggest and I think he can take us to the next level.” pic.twitter.com/zJWahtvygN

Pellegrini may only have been with the club a short time but in that short time he’s certainly started to make an impact and it seems that one of his new signings, Jack Wilshere, is certainly impressed with the plans the gaffer has:
Wilshere: “I am excited with the manager. He wants to play football, play out from midfield, press high & win the ball. I’m not saying we’re going to win the league but if we play football, press and win the ball back high up the pitch then we’ll be all right this year.” pic.twitter.com/z8Jf2Myx5D

I’m probably not alone when I state that I doubt whether I’ve been so eager for a season to start for such a long, long time, bring it on!
