So it is rumoured we are looking into the possibility of negotiating a new deal for our midfield marvel and removing the £85million buyout clause which if it were possible would be great news for the supporters but even if we did somehow manage it would it really change anything at all?

If found that he has not done anything wrong in regards to the betting scandal swirling about all the elite clubs who could afford him and want him will be in for him and financial wise could blow us out of the water with wages add to that the champions league(we still hope i know)i cannot see us holding on to him....whilst not good and with know £85million clause we can cash in again you think but the way Citeh do business we could be hard pressed to get that unless there is a bidding war.

So the risk we currently run is offer new contract on top wages and he is found guilty and gets a lengthy ban that then hamstrings us to getting a replacement whilst he serves a ban or get rid of the minimum release clause and hope for a bidding war but like Rice if he only wants Citeh then it will be a very tough negotiation to get what we want for him new deal or not.

Someone needs to slap him silly and tell him we are West Ham and we don't play amateur dramatics, throwing himself around like he's been shot all the time. Boils my piss!!!

Get used to that fact and it won't be hard to take. Wouldn't surprise me if it were West Ham, the club itself, who leaked out a betting scandal just to keep him for a few extra months
Lets just hope that the club are ready with replacements with the money immediately.

If we were Brighton we would get £100M for him!

Strange to say but I think we can let him go, in Mo we now trust!!!

However, I do like the interceptions he makes a'la Dec

David Moyes is on record stating he wanted to adopt the 'Red Bull' model, and wasn't contradicted by the Board.

They have just brought on board a scouting/personnel Technical Director known as the 'Pearl Diver'.

We have to accept that the West Ham way is to sell players at top prices and reinvest in young talent from around the world.

I Expect West Ham to sell a number of these investment assets over the coming years.
