It’s almost impossible to believe the business West Ham have been doing since the summer started.

The massive and still key arrival was manager Manuel Pellegrini on £10 million  a year deal and we have to accept that everything that’s followed has been as a result of the Chilean agreeing to take over at the club.

Ryan Fredericks was a decent start, Lukasz Fabianski reasonable but when Issa Diop arrived we knew something special was starting to unfold.

Jack Wilshere’s decision to join us came – he explained – as a result of the chat he had with our manager declaring: “I wanted to be a part of his plan.”

Within 24 hours of that Borrusia Dortmund wideman Andriy Yarmolenko had flown into the Swiss training camp, taken his medical and signed before giving his first interview on the official site. Staggering!

Now we hear and see Felipe Anderson arriving at Heathrow  with all the indications being he is going to become the marquee signing on Monday at over £50 million.

There were those who believed that David Moyes had received a bum rap when the board thanked him and wished him goodbye at the beginning of summer.

But nobody will convince me that Moyes or indeed Slaven Bilic would have nailed down this number of quality signings so quickly.

In responding so positively to the woes and protests of last season the Hammers board is watching their managerial choice having the sort of effect that has you believing the Europa League may not be an impossible dream.

The sun is burning down, top quality signings are appearing almost daily and we are told this is most certainly not the end of them.

We had our share of misery last season… let’s all enjoy these extraordinary moments!
