We are suing the Sporting Lisbon Communications Director about his statement he made about the Carvalho transfer.

Cannot honestly make this stuff up....
 
Sullivan is a dodgy geeza. He built his fortune through pr0n, which is a kind of indicator. Both Gold and Sullivan are bad news

Speaking of Sporting and Carvalho, according to some sources, he could be our next target (legitimately, not for lols).

Perhaps our dealings with Silva has thrown West Ham off? It nearly threw Chelsea off with Drinkwater.
 
Well, same question, if his hamstrings didn't let him down, where would he sit?
I think he'd sit far far higher in a lot of people minds. If his hammy's dont give way and he stayed at Liverpool, well he had 118 league goals by the time he was 25. He would have given Shearer's record a run. Probably wouldnt have gotten there though. I mean Shearer's record is 260. Owen already had 118. So he needs a further 142. If he played to say 32 years old that's another 7 years so he would have needed around 20 goals a season to get there.

So he would probably fall short but I could have seen him amass 220 or so PL goals.

But that of course is all reliant on his body not failing him.

He won a Ballon D'Or didnt he?

It's funny, I loved Owen and he sure could score goals but I still think Fowler was better, more clinical but injuries hurt him too.

Prime Fowler was better than prime Owen IMO.

Worst Ballon Dor winner ever.

Payet on leaving WHU

The 30-year-old, who made a name for himself for all the right reasons during his first season under Slaven Bilic, still only has praise for the Croatian manager, and admits he owes a lot to the man currently fighting for his job after three defeats in as many games in the Premier League.

He said: “He managed me like a father. We spoke every day. He quickly understood how I worked. You saw that straight away in how quickly I adapted. He’s a cranky guy. He’s from Croatia… He can shout, but he’s good at man management”.

Revealing he didn’t hold anything against Bilic when the West Ham coach had a go at him in press conferences, Payet admitted to his ability to make life hell for his managers if he so wished.

He explained: “I know how to be a d***head. It’s one of my specialties. It’s a little game. When I want to piss everyone off, I do it. My managers understood that: when I sulk, they talk to me. It’s a way for me to be heard. Those who know me play along, and, in the end, it goes well”.

December last year was when it all started to go wrong for West Ham and Payet, once Marseille had changed owners and things were looking up.

Furthermore, the Hammers weren’t able to carry on their impressive form from the 2015/16 season, and the France international started to feel like this wasn’t the right club for him anymore.

He said: “I left Marseille feeling unsatisfied. Playing in Marseille during the Euros brought all that back, and I saw the fans were still behind me despite me changing clubs. I told myself when I left that I would return to OM. Leaving was never in my plans, anyways.

“No one ever forces me to do anything, but leaving the club was done out of love. I knew there was a need for money, and the most expensive players would be sold. I could have said didn’t want to leave, but when you love OM, you can’t even think about leaving it in the sh*t.”

He added: “I left for many reasons, but the main one was about football: West Ham’s objectives weren’t the same as the last season, and I felt in danger for my football and my chances with the national team. I had a choice to make”.
