Can you guys stay away from Scott Hogan please, we need him for the Chelski game

I understand the deals cooled anyway. Although it's not news they've only just discovered that he's had two cruciate ligament operations. You couldn't make it up!

I hadn't seen that bit. Probably makes him worth another £5m then

Worth more than that to us

Hopefully, from WH's POV if there's an injury record there, that'll remain the case.

Good luck vs chelski as well.

Sakho (LFC) will be available this Jan, you guys would be mad not to bid for him....

If he's hopeless, injury prone, likely to be off to a foreign tournament during the league season or overpriced by £10m we'll have him

I think 15-19m you would probably get him - he is anything but overpriced tbh at that... he is/was probably our best defender, apart from he can look awkward on the ball doing what he should be good at he is very very good...would without doubt be a good buy for you

[RichB]

I guess we could do with a new Sakho, we've broken ours.

He sounds far too sensible a purchase for WH.

Payet is wanting away, he won't train with the squad and won't feature this weekend, Bilic seemed pretty damned mad in his presser.

[alfie2244]

No surprise there......his attitude has been awful for some time IMO........Make him play with the youth teams.

[TCEvo]

This season just keeps on giving.

stty timing... but I'd assumed we'd only get a couple of years out of him anyway; shame it potentially won't be until the end of this one though.

Hope he likes dim sum, msg and playing in a non-league.

[bad company]

Bilic is saying that Payet doesn't want to play for WH but apparently we won't sell him.

£120k a week and just decides he doesn't want to play for you anymore.

What a .

Classic agent trick. Forces Club's hands. We can play him - I think Billic bringing him on against cittee last week was a bit of a fk you to Payet - but he can then wander about & do fk all.

[sjc]

It's no surprise, his effort levels have been an utter disgrace this season, not just physically, but with his brain as well, there's been times on the pitch where he's played passes that a 10 year old would get slaughtered for, just because he couldn't be arsed.
As much as he was a pleasure last season, it's quite possible that those who felt the dressing room was cancerous have found the problem.

[RichB]

It's staggering how these guys can go from relatively unheard of to prima donna in such a short space of time. I believe I'm right in saying that prior to joining the Hammers he'd been overlooked by the French national team? Get rid...

[TCEvo]

Shame, but Club's bigger than one wker; particularly one who's carer we resurrected.

Agree that for much of the season his effort level and passing has been utter ste.

Outrageous isn't it? Prima donna bd.

[TEKNOPUG]

How much do you want for him?

Probably more to the story than at first appears. Maybe he wanted to leave in the summer, perhaps even told he could but club priced him out? Or convinced to stay after being told of lots of exciting new signings? Or perhaps he's a dick?

If he doesn't want to play why doesn't he hand in a transfer request?

[TCEvo]

Presumably would forfeit something if he handed in a transfer request.

Rather he did if he want's out.

Saying he doesn't want to play and then sulking off to France is the behaviour of a tosser.

There were rumours that he wanted another pay rise after the euros, on the back of the better deal we'd already given him making him the best paid player in our history.


We don't want payet
Dimitri payet
Just don't think you understand
You think your the man
But we are West Ham
fkoff Dimitri Payet...

In which case it's purely about money? Surely he's in breach of contract if he refuses to play and will forfeit his wages?

Same agent as Lamine Kone at Sunderland apparently (they had some real problems with him last window) - he's well known when it comes to rattling cages in an attempt to get a wage rise for his player, and probably a fat fee for himself along the way of course.
