Description

West Ham's final season at the Boleyn Ground was always going to be memorable. It featured a new manager in Slaven Bilic, the arrival of a French magician called Dimitri Payet, Europa League football in July, away wins at Arsenal, Liverpool and Man City, an unexpected tilt at the top four and an epic last game at the Boleyn against Man United.
