West Ham United return to pre-season training today as preparations start ahead of the 2017/18 season.
The Hammers are readying themselves for another year in the Premier League and are hoping to improve after a disappointing 11th place finish last term.
As the players returned to Rush Green to be put through their paces after a holiday break, there was one new face to see.
Pablo Zabaleta was meeting his new team mates after joining West Ham on a free transfer from Manchester City.
Injured duo Andy Carroll and Diafra Sakho were also seen walking into training as they aim to recover in time for the new season.
Inevitably, the vast majority of replies were about West Ham’s lack of signings at this stage.
Fans are starting to worry about the way the squad is shaping up as the new season edges nearer.
Here are a selection of responses to the news that West Ham have returned to pre-season training.
Relegation battle coming again if they don't make signings

'And of course once Sakho has stopped throwing strops and crashing cars and is finally fit he'll be like a new signing.'
