Premise: West Ham have enjoyed a radical overhaul this summer with over £100million ploughed into transfer fees during the window. The Hammers managed to conclude much of their business long before deadline day, meaning their new recruits have had time to gel into the squad. Manuel Pellegrini looks set to name six new signings in his first starting XI of the season against Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday. Felipe Anderson and Andriy Yarmolenko represent two of the biggest summer outlays, with the former signing in a £40million move from Lazio.
Hypothesis: West Ham has paid a large amount of money for new players.
