“Striker wants club that puts more faith in him”

|

sakhoDiafra Sakho’s agent says his client wants to quit West Ham because of his lack of game time.

And the representative, Thierno Seydi, claims a series of clubs have shown interest in the striker.

He told the Sun: “Diafra wants to play and to start matches, but West Ham are not offering him the opportunitiesSo he has declared his intention to look elsewhere. He is not short of offers.

He has stated his desire to leave since the last transfer window. His club hasn’t been happy about this. Diafra will never pick a fight to achieve his aim. He will leave, but he’ll do it in the proper manner.

He knows West Ham want to make money from his transfer.He has remained professional despite the numerous offers he’s received.He wants to play for a club that puts more faith in him.”

    Can’t blame him. Moyes could of been a chance to get the best from him & when he has played has made a difference but no starts. Still helps us win some points.
    Sahko is my Fav but I don’t blame him for Rennes & honestly think the board knew about it & were planning on selling him but replacement fell thru & thin squad.
    He is on low wages compared to rest even if he starts. Makes £20k £35k off bench & £50k if starts. So Ox makes the same as him.

    If he could of started more I would of given him a year w decent wages & add ons to keep performances good but hr is going now.
    Just hope Moyes starts using Chic or we could be left w just AC as CF again.

    And also don’t sell him to a rival table club like Palace Brighton or Swansea. Which Palace were keen. And I can see him going to Palace w Zaha & Townsend & doing very well.
    Or could try & swap to Swansea for Mawson which I’m listening to Radio now & they think Swansea Fans be happy to sell him for £20m plus bc been bad this season tho his stats are better then Reid & somehow hasn’t gotten a card all season don’t think shouldnbe a Priority.
    And Swansea are 2 wins off 13th so sell him to France not a table rival bc we could regreat that

    I think his agent is talking utter tosh. He rebelled around 2 years ago, and has never been the same since. He has made it known enough times that he wants out, and this is just the latest. We all know he is potentially our best striker but his antics make it impossible to rely on him. That’s the reason our last 2 managers have not trusted him. I don’t blame them. Perhaps we can swap him for Dembelle.

    want out? then get lost? west ham united is and will always bigger than you.

    He must be a real pain in the backside in training because on ability alone he should be playing I think Moyes would play him if he played ball on the training field, you would certainly put him ahead of Antonio up top every day of the week but then you would think the same of Hernandez so perhaps those players are being lined up for moves elsewhere if we can get the replacements in.

    More faith! What club looked after him when he got into bother with the law ? Driving his Lamborghini into a wall in hornchurch after an altercation with his ‘other half? He got the club’s legal team to help him out on that one? And going to play for Senegal he damaged his back on the advice of there medical team? I wonder who paid out for all the months of rehabilitation and putting that right? As a season ticket or ticket payer you help the club pay for this care . This just shows that some of todays players have no loyalty or sense of belonging? only to there pockets and bank accounts. So Don’t any one with a short memory knock Mark Noble! Because when WE went down one season he stayed!! where as Roy Hodgson as manager of Fulham wanted to sign him to Fulham ? Hodgson never forgave him and never played him for England when he managed England That’s loyalty ! C.O.Y.I

    I don’t blame him for wanting out. Sits on the bench every game with Carroll and Hernandez while we play without a proper striker. Only difference is he’s on about a quarter of their salary. And he’s the best striker of the bunch.

    So he will never pick a fight hey? Does his agent think we were all born yesterday? This clown has done nothing but pick fights over the last two years. He is all about himself and couldn’t care less about the team or the club. A gifted striker, yes, and with a brain he would have been a real asset to us, but unfortunately that’s not going to happen now. Ship him out soonest, but not to another PL club because he is capable of biting us big time if he decides to knuckle down and concentrate on his footy.
