It could easily be argued West Ham United have done the best business of any side in the Premier League so far in this Summer window.
Manuel Pellegrini has lifted the spirits of Irons fans everywhere with his transfer business this summer, that much is for sure.
His latest move has been to sign gifted Englishman Jack Wilshere. This signing of the technically gifted midfielder follows a very positive summer, which has brought in many new recruits. Ryan Fredericks from Fulham, Issa Diop from Toulouse and Lukasz Fabianski from Swansea City are all players which will come in and immediately make the squad stronger.
However, the blockbuster signing thus far has been Andriy Yarmolenko from Borussia Dortmund, the Ukraine international is a major coup for the East Londoners. The winger had 35 goals in 77 caps for his national side, and will add goals and assists at the London Stadium.
Despite the face they have made fantastic strides in the Transfer market, there are still some players in the squad who just look like they no longer belong at West Ham.
With that in mind, here are three players who just shouldn’t still be at the London Stadium
With the signing of Yarmolenko, it is hard to see how Antonio is going to be anything other than a bit-part player if he stays at West Ham United.
Crystal Palace are amongst the clubs to have shown interest in the winger.
Antonio has been a good player for West Ham in recent seasons, but with the ambition the Hammers are showing, it is hard to see a place for him in East London anymore.
West Ham should sell the player, and allow him to leave for more first-team action.
What possessed the Irons to spend £10m on a Target Man from Preston North End we will never know, but it has clearly been established he is not Premier League quality.
A player who is functional in the Championship, he is not a prolific goal scorer but his hold up play is good for second-tier level.
The January panic buy needs to move on for the good of his career, as it is clear as day that he will never be a Premier League player.
Now aged 21, it is doubtful Martinez will fulfil the potential the Irons hoped for when they brought him to East London from Valencia.
One league goal in fifteen appearances at Oxford United, and one League goal in ten Segunda Division appearances with Real Valladolid does little to make you think the Spaniard can make it at West Ham United.
Pellegrini should sell the striker and cash in on his potential, it seems West Ham United are beyond his talents now.
