But these are the next six for West Ham, Alan.
And with all these injuries as we stand, is it a case just of getting through, trying to pick up as many points as they possibly can in this tough period?
Well, exactly, yeah.
You've got to do that when you're a little bit low on...
On players as they were today, that's why it was such a huge win today.
Anything they can get at Man City will be a bonus.
But as he said, the likes of Payet aren't too far away, Lanzini and those sorts.
There are some long-term ones, but he'll be hoping to get his main men back in order for them to play in the way that they want to, in order to be able to fashion stuff in the way that they couldn't today.
They were lacking inspiration, weren't they?
Yeah, and I just love the way he's so politely abrupt about his chairman there, almost ensuring that he gets his man.
Other people annoy their chairman, don't they?
His chairman doesn't know he's going to be generous.
Exactly, yeah, that's it, and he's no choice now.
But there's a good thing going on here.
He's a fabulous addition, I think, to the roster of brilliant managers that are in our league, entertaining managers.
He's full value, and I think we're going to see a really good West Ham...
I suppose, career for this man here in the stadium.
He's a breath of fresh air.
I really, really like him.
And I think if he gets another player or two, great.
