West Ham Utd Legends volume 2 DVD. West Ham United is a club with a rich heritage of quality players whose names still excite today's supporters whenever they are mentioned. 'West Ham Legends' is an ILC Sport tribute series to some of the greats from West Ham's history, most of their efforts being seen on DVD and video for the very first time in this format. This second volume features players whose careers span the decades of success from the early sixties through to the twenty-first century. Bobby Moore captained England to their finest footballing achievement in 1966, following on from leading the Hammers to their first ever FA Cup final and European Cup Winners Cup victories of 1964 and 1965. He was subsequently voted footballer of the year and awarded the OBE in 1967. His 108 full England caps still remains a record for an outfield player. Alan Devonshire was possibly West Ham's bargain buy of all time, signed from non-League Southall in 1976 for just £5,000. Goal architect and poacher, Devonshire's silky skills on and off the ball provided countless opportunities for Hammers' strikers down the years to add to their goal tallies. He will probably be best remembered as a central cog in the side that took West Ham to their finest ever league position of 3rd in 1985-86. Frank McAvennie's first season in a West Ham shirt saw him top score for the side with 28 goals that almost took the Hammers to their first ever top flight title in 1985-86. A £340,000 close-season signing from St Mirren, McAvennie's pace and positional skills made him a handful for defenders up and down the country, and his partnership with Tony Cottee that season yielded an unbelievable 54 goals. Trevor Morley remains one of the very few West Ham strikers to have been a central part of two promotion-winning Hammers' sides, in 1991 and 1993. He was part of a double signing with Ian Bishop, both from Manchester City, with the clear intention of getting West Ham back into the big league, after the disastrous 1988-89 relegation season. His finest achievement was leading from the front in 1993-94, when his 16 goals finally secured full Premiership status and he was voted Hammer of the Year in May 1994. Paolo Di Canio was one of many foreign professionals brought to the club by wheeler dealer manager Harry Redknapp, for a then bargain price of just £1.7m, after a lengthy suspension in the 1998-99 season. Redknapp's move was generally perceived as a hopeless gamble by the English football media, but Di Canio's effective reinvention yielded immediate breathtaking success, even by the former Lazio player's dizzily high standards. Unbelievable goals, showcases of skills and trickery as well as an unpredictable and comic personality positively lit up the club in his five seasons at Upton Park.
