Morrison moans…Lanzini performs – NEXT!
A few of you may have noticed that the West Ham flop, former so called bad boy ( I prefer, nuisance) and injury stricken midfielder has been giving it large to The Sun over the last couple of days.
It will come as no surprise to you to begin to understand why the management of that publication is currently offering to deliver it FREE to your door!
Ravel – unlike another midfielder named Manuel Lanzini who is the same 22 years old – has been moaning this morning about West Ham messing with his head.
He whined: “At times I wanted to stop playing because I felt I had done everything right to be playing in the team. I started to dislike the sport because it didn’t matter how hard I worked, I wasn’t in the team”
Get the violins out!
Interestingly, he is not in the Lazio team either, a situation apparently down to injury but he adds in defence of himself that whilst in the UK he’d only ever wanted to play for West Ham and had sorted his attitude out but still wan’t in the first team.
Happens to loads of players mate – they tend to get on with it. No one has a divine right to a first team place.
Of the loan move to Cardiff he added: “Cardiff is a great club but I didn’t really want to go out on loan. I wanted to play at West Ham and be in the Premier League. My heart was not in it”
Heart wasn’t in it? He’s a professional footballer for goodness sake. Again… just get on with it son.
In fairness we should mention that there were alleged problems between himself and the former manager but many have suffered the same and stuck it out until things change!
Compare Ravel’s approach to Lanzini’s – and I’m not making a direct comparison in playing style although there are similarities.
This lad has arrived from halfway across the world, has produced a series of fine performances and is on his way to becoming a major Irons talent.
Apart from his arrival interview he has had nothing to say to the media and allowed us to judge him purely on performance.
Ravel -watch and learn. Pointless interviews get you nowhere.
