Manuel Pellegrini is already ringing the changes with new Spanish goalkeeper Roberto, signing on a free as the popular Adrian leaves, along with Carroll and Nasri and there will no doubt be more players on their way out. The big question will be who will we sign to replace and hopefully improve our squad for the coming season? Well, whilst we wait for the excitement of the transfer window to unfold here is a timely reminder of the players who have excited, frustrated, entertained – on and off the pitch at times and caused us to shout and scream with joy and celebrate as well as give us high blood pressure and make us use a few choice words we no doubt will be repeating again next season. Some of those featured here will not be wearing the claret and blue next season, and some we can’t wait to see walk onto the pitch wearing the new kit, which I think is looking pretty cool. Oh, and we got to honour West Ham legend Billy Bonds – as well as seeing some other ex-players on a match day. I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their continued support and wonderful words and feedback. I am always touched by those who take the time to comment and so glad that readers enjoy my match day photo diaries.
