Speculation that Dimitri Payet may be loaned to Marseilles until the end of the season looks 100 per cent NOT ON!
A number of media outlets have suggested we could be tempted to accept such a deal with an option to buy in the Summer.
But our top inside source laughed off the latest reports on contract rebel Payet and said a loan deal with Marseille was a zero possibility!
And we were told jokingly that were it to happen it would involve a £10 million loan fee!!
Marseille made a third bid of £23m earlier this week but the Hammers are in no rush and no desperate need for the money.
Insiders say they are happy to let the negotiations run on until transfer deadline day and if a deal doesn’t happen they believe they will get more in the summer when the market is more “open”
The club refuse to be pushed around and believe they have the upper hand. American billionaire Frank McCourt has promised major player investment to Marseille, a promise he has so far failed to deliver. He has got more to lose than the West Ham owners in terms of relationship with fans.
I cant see anything happening until Deadline Day.If they dont come up with the readies then fine he can rot with the youngsters.
As far as I’m concerned he can rot in his garden shed .
With a bucket of KFC Kevin lol
The club has one more week to hold its nerve they are playing a blinder so far they just need to stick it out.Oh and make sure you never do an article on here about Ivan Perisic or you will have the whtid crew turning up mob handed pitch forks in hand & piece of straw in mouth to tell you off.All to the theme of Deliverance.
I read the link to Perisic a couple of days ago.I really dont see the story having any legs but stranger things have happened in football.
I just read the Perisic piece on there.Wow they have some ungrateful rude guys on there.Do they think they own the site.
Yes 🙂 Surely you know that by now ? It’s a place where all our Mensa fans gather to talk about all things non football related 🙂
Well whatever it is gw they come across as rude,ungrateful fools.
If he doesn’t go anywhere the club could always get him unwrapping the new flags at the stadium or do a bit of stewarding 🙂
…he can paint over the Payet 27 panel, too, while he’s at it…
And push the retractable seating back and forth 🙂
We have the upper hand and can simply wait for others to bid. All the while he refuses to play, he will be fined which reduces the wages bill.
The results of the last two games have been a Godsend for the owners and have made our PayExit position much stronger.
Without the move he has demanded, he suffers (no tears from me): without an offer that meets our valuation, Marseilles will have increasingly irate fans; without Payet in our side the team is much happier.; without a decent offer this window, we can sell him in the summer for a better fee when other teams will be interested.
It’s a win, win, win, win situation.
Only problem i see in your win win situation markro is if after the transfer window closes and we still have him, he may call our bluff want to play again. After what has been said by players SB and the like we dont really want him anywhere near the squad so SB will not play want to play him so we shall have to pay his wages even though he wont be playing.
If he is still with us in the summer i can see his “family reasons” disappearing & him being available to whoever offers him the most cash.Jeff Stelling on Sky made me laugh yesterday when he said if only he had a pound for everytime he had heard a wantaway player say it is for family reasons.
lmao They’ve surpassed themselves there. In the first 25 posts they’ve trashed a newcomers article, claimed to have suggested they thought of the signing first, name called the owners, accused Getinthehole of being another poster, slagged off a new poster and talked crap in the remaining posts!! Credit it where it’s due and it’s only 10am! Lmao
Isn’t it true they spend all day discussing players we won’t sign only to slag a lad off for posting about another. Oh the irony!
I dont get some of that lot.A fella does an article from another hammer from Croatia & they think they have the divine right to rubbish it.Talk about having swollen heads & egos to match.
Perhaps his missus is giving him greif ????
