Di Canio: “Here’s the next Irons legend”

|

Di CanioPaolo Di Canio reckons Dimi Payet is all set to follow in his own legendary footsteps.

Upton Park hero Di Canio said: “Payet is a fantastic footballer. He can be a cracker for a few years to come. He works hard for the team, off-the-ball as well as on it.

“Look at the top footballers, the ones who play for Arsenal or Manchester City, and they are not doing it like Payet. That proves that he is a very talented player.

“As an individual, Payet is one of the best signing this year in the Premier League. Just look at his numbers this season and they will show you that.”

Di Canio, reckons this squad  is the best the club’s fans have seen for many years.

And he said:  “You see that the club’s mentality, the methodology and the philosophy has changed completely.

“There is a brain and mentality and work ethic, which is all thanks to Bilic. This club can now look forward to the future.”

    Just a shame there’s no job for him at the club,he could do a great job as a attacking coach in a role similar to Teddy,s
    I think we could have number of players not just Dimitri about to become legends
    Lanzini will be just like Tevez but hopefully stay many years more
    Sakho will be like super Mac
    Antonio could be another Sinclair
    Valencia even Carroll could still be greats if they show some flair for the game,
    Noble could be one of our great captains
    Cressie,Oxford,Byram Adrien all could play for years and be big stars
    What a DIffrence a year makes
