Slaven Bilic made one young West Ham fan's dreams come true on Tuesday.
Hammers supporter Matt Hill took his son Alf to the club's training ground in Rush Green to try and meet his heroes.
Having spotted the rest of the West Ham squad, Alf was waiting for the in-form Andy Carroll to finish his fitness work inside.
Unfortunately, the ex-Liverpool striker was taking his time and it appeared the youngster would miss out until boss Bilic came out to the car park.
Instead of heading home, Bilic took the young Hammer back into the training ground to meet the striker.

Matt Hill posted his version of events on social media, praising Bilic to the club, captain Mark Noble and owner David Gold.
He added: "What an absolute star Slav, you made his life!
"I hope he gets to see this post as I couldnt' say thank you enough to him at the time."

West Ham are currently 10th in the Premier League following Saturday's 2-2 draw with West Brom.
Bilic has been charged with improper conduct following his reaction to the Baggies' dramatic equaliser.
The Croat slammed a microphone into the ground in frustration at a number of decisions that went against his side.
