West Ham boss Manuel Pellegrini was happy with their summer market campaign.
The Hammers brought in six players during the transfer window - strikers Sebastien Haller, who joined for a record fee, and Albian Ajeti, midfielder Pablo Fornals, defender Goncalo Cardoso and goalkeepers Roberto and David Martin - as Pellegrini looks to build on last season's tenth-place finish.
"It was the plan," the manager said. "It was what I wanted as a team. We are very clear with the owners in what we are doing and they give me all the responsibility. That's so important for me as a manager and one of the reasons why I came here to do this job.
"We are always working with Mario in all the different positions of the team, with young players, with players who can be important players of the future, with players that can play immediately, so we are always working in all different positions.
"When we need to resolve a problem, or change a player, I always have four or five names to choose."
