Grading Every Premier League Team's Transfer Window

#18 Watford

Players in: Gerard Deulofeu, Adam Masina, Ken Sema, Marc Navarro, Ben Wilmot, Domingos Quina, Ben Foster and Kwasi Sibo

Players out: Richarlison, Nordin Amrabat, Mauro Zárate, Jerome Sinclair, Dodi Lukebakio, Tommie Hoban, Daniel Bachmann and Costel Pantilimon

The Hornets may have been stung.

Watford have had a mixed window. You cannot look at their team and say there have been any upgrades. They do have a Richarilson shaped hole to fill on the wings, as even Amrabat has left now. Can unproven Ken Sema do a job in that role? Deulofeu was already here last season, with his deal being finalized this window.

However, Watford have clearly signed players looking towards the future. All signings, apart from Ben Foster are below 24 years of age. These include highly-rated defender Ben Wilmot from Stevenage and Domingos Quina from West Ham. Even though their investments this window will pay off in a few years, this season may just be a struggle for The Hornets.

Grade: C-

#19 West Ham United

Players in: Felipe Anderson, Issa Diop, Andriy Yarmolenko, Lukasz Fabianski, Carlos Sánchez, Lucas Pérez, Fabián Balbuena, Jack Wilshere and Ryan Fredericks

Players out: Cheikhou Kouyaté, Reece Burke, Domingos Quina, Sead Haksabanovic, Jordan Hugill, Patrice Evra, James Collins and João Mário

The Hammers have hammered down some great deals.

A great window for The Hammers, West Ham can look forward to a great season ahead. They have a new manager in former Premier League champion Manuel Pellegrini, and he has strengthened the squad in all key areas. The pressure on Javier Hernandez and Marko Arnautovic has been eased by bringing Lucas Perez from Arsenal. To give them service, great wingers in the form of Andriy Yarmolenko and Felipe Anderson have been added.

Along with the attacking talent, injury-prone but spectacular midfielder, Jack Wilshere has joined the ranks on a free from Arsenal. Experienced Carlos Sanchez joins the defensive midfield ranks, and the defense has been given a new look with Balbuena and Issa Diop. Their goalkeeping worries can also be eased, as Fabianski has joined to either start or be an option behind Adrian. This team is well-rounded and have done a great job in the transfer market. They could challenge for Europe with this team.

Grade: B+
