Smells like team spirit

Watching the dressing room and parade celebrations of the West Ham players was in many ways like seeing a bunch of Sunday League mates down the pub after a famous win. A three-day trip to Portugal before the Europa Conference Final certainly helped with team camaraderie and these players will now have a bond for life. There were numerous brilliant moments, Soucek singing "West Ham are massive!", samba dancing from Paqueta and Emerson, a bit of twerking from Kurt Zouma, Moyes dad dancing to the Proclaimers and Is This the Way to Amarillo?, and of course the Jarrod Bowen song (which Danny Dyer senior thinks is "quite romantic"). While players like Thilo Kehrer, who struggled initially, were giving it large during the two-day long party. Even without Declan Rice, these lads are going to want to play for each other next season. Irons!
