West Ham United boss Slaven Bilic was thrilled with his team's transfer deadline day deals
Slaven Bilic was able to reflect on a job well done after West Ham United successfully completed four incoming transfers on Tuesday's deadline.
Alex Song, Victor Moses, Nikica Jelavic and Michail Antonio all made their way to the Boleyn Ground on a busy day, with Matt Jarvis the sole departure the other way - on loan to Norwich City.
Bilic is now delighted with the make-up of his squad, saying Tuesday's additions were exactly the names he was after.
"I think we did well with our business around the deadline," he said. "I would like to thank everyone who was involved, especially the board, because they have to finish it and they had to find the finance.
"I think we've done a good job - that's what we wanted and it looks like the last day was a hectic day, but really the deals were done a few days ago and we just needed the papers [finalised].
"We knew from the start what we wanted and for a few players we waited until the end because it was impossible to get them done earlier because of their clubs.
"But we were patient and we said we'd wait until the last day and have a back-up if necessary.

We didn't want to just get the numbers, but the quality ones and I'm really glad that we've done that
"That's why maybe it looks like it was all done on the last day, but it wasn't.
"We had some positions in which we needed some quality additions and more numbers. We didn't want to just get the numbers, but the quality ones and I'm really glad that we've done that.
"I wish all the new signings a welcome and hopefully both sides enjoy it - the players and the Club. We have a big expectation of them, they know that and that's why they've come.
"We are really pleased that they are at West Ham United, and on Tuesday Matt Jarvis went on loan to Norwich too and I wish him all the best of luck."
