West Ham are not having a good season in the Premier League, and they look set to finish in the bottom half of the standings.

The Hammers have struggled since the departure of attacking midfielder Dimitri Payet in the January transfer window.

The London club also need a proven goalscorer who can score between 15 and 20 goals in the Premier League in a single season.

West Ham are a massive club, and there is potential to break into the top six of the Premier League in the coming years.

Bilic is a good manager, and he should be backed by the board in the summer transfer window in order to reinforce his squad and make it more competitive.
