The Hammers boss was in an understandably buoyant mood after his side overcame Burnley 3-1 at Turf Moor.

"What about those two headers! They were absolutely fantastic.  These two lads, [Sakho and Valencia] have come in and hit ground the running and they're certainly making a name for themselves.

"We then felt that with Enner, having been away to South America and having played twice, he's got a goal, brilliant.  Let's bring Coley on and lo and behold for me today, the front three scored three goals today.  In the end it looks like a comfortable win but it was never that comfortable. 

"This was a massive, massive win.  These are the teams you've got to get your points against.  We did it against QPR, we've done it against Burnley and that makes our life a lot easier to go and attack Manchester City next week."
