DG talks life without Payet…plus Antonio view

spt_ai_cardiff_whu_09.jpgDavid Gold believes West Ham are all set set to show that they are no one man team.

The co chairman has put the despair of losing Dimitri Payet behind him and declared: “I’m fascinated to see how the manager will set the team up for Spurs.

“We have many options now and whilst all the pundits have explained that Lanzini can play the Payet role, we are about to find out who will be taking over his job.

“It could be Zarate and there may even be a role now for Michail Antonio – we’ll have to wait and see but it really is going to be extremely interesting.”

Addressing the Antonio issue in an exclusive interview with ClaretandHugh he declared: “People have been complaining that he hasn’t had his chance as though it’s a bad thing.

“We have so many options now and surely that has to be a good thing. His time will come – it may even be on Sunday at some stage.

“We are a club that’s aiming to cover every position and Michail Antonio is a part of it. H’s a great lad with a fantastic attitude. I love the boy to bits.”

“We are growing as a club and depth in the squad and whilst Payet is obviously a big loss I’m sure we can cope and feel expectant and confident about the weekend.”
