The players before the game, West Ham vs Tottenham

West Ham opened the season at home to Spurs, whom they defeated three times last season in all competitions. It was an eventful game, seeing Mark Noble miss a penalty for the first time since 2009. Both sides went down to ten men after James Collins picked up two yellow cards, whilst Kyle Naughton saw straight red for handling the ball in the penalty area. Eric Dier scored his first competitive goal for Spurs in stoppage time to pick up all three points for the North London club.[24] Next up for the Hammers was an away trip to managerless Palace. Mauro Zárate hit a spectacular volley to register his first West Ham goal and there were also goals from Stewart Downing and Carlton Cole. Senegalese player Diafra Sakho and Diego Poyet, son of Gus, also made their debuts.[25] Southampton was the next challenge and the last game before the international break. The club unveiled Barcelona and Cameroon midfielder Alex Song before kick off, who joined for a season-long loan.[26] Mark Noble put West Ham a goal up before half time but Southampton scored two second half goals to take all three points back to the South Coast. They finished the month in eleventh place.[27]

September

West Ham played Hull City in their first game during September. A 2-2 draw at the KC Stadium produced a debut goal for Enner Valencia and club debut's for Carl Jenkinson, Morgan Amalfitano and Alex Song.[28] The club's second win of the season came at home to Liverpool. Morgan Amalfitano scored his first goal for the club in a 3-1 win.[29] Despite captain Wayne Rooney seeing red, West Ham could not overcome the ten men of Manchester United, losing 2-1.[30]

October

The first of a three game winning streak came at home against struggling QPR in a 2-0 win, which saw the club move up to seventh. Diafro Sakho scored his third consecutive league goal.[31] A second straight win came against promoted side Burnley. Sakho scored his fourth consecutive league goal and helped move West Ham to fourth in the table on the eve of Sam Allardyce's 60th birthday.[32] West Ham secured their third straight win and a 100% win rate for October in a 2-1 home win against Premier League champions Manchester City. Sakho scored his fifth consecutive league goal and his sixth in a row in all competitions, breaking a club record.[33]

November

West Ham visited Stoke City and salvaged a point after being 2-0 down, to draw 2-2, taking their unbeaten run to four games. Sakho was unable to continue his run of scoring in consecutive matches following an injury sustained in the Manchester City match.[34] Aston Villa was next to visit the Boleyn Ground, a match that ended 0-0. This result extended West Ham's unbeaten run to 5 games and also saw the return of Andy Carroll following severals months out through injury. The club went into the November international break in fourth place.[35]

December

The visit of Swansea City on 7 December produced a 3-1 win for West Ham placing them in third place in the Premier League.[36] On 20 December, West Ham beat Leicester City 2-0 to place them in the top four of the league at Christmas, the first time this has occurred since the 1985-86 season.[37] West Ham lost their next two games, 2-0 away to Chelsea and 2-1 at home to Arsenal to be placed 6th at the end of the year.[38]
