    The problem is the owners will look like a laughing stock if they sell Dimi this summer after all their spiel about taking us to the next level through the Olympic Stadium move.

    You couldn't kick off a new era for the club in a more negative way than by selling Payet.

    This young man has it down right imo......

    Although I actually don't think anyone will bid mega bucks for Payet.

    Imagine when we sell Payet for £80m, spending £30m of that on Christian Benteke won't seem so bad.

    Problem with getting insane sums of money is that the money isn't usually reinvested wisely

    Look at Bale and Suarez, 2 mega mega deals, the type of money we will be looking for Payet and he's honestly as good as those palyers

    But look how hard liverpool & spurs messed up replacing him, blew the load on average players

    Keeping payet is much better than £60mil and I personally see him staying because I don't think the huge clubs are going to pay sooooo much money for a 29 year oldso here's hoping

    Would you like some company?

    Payet is one player I would not mind scoring a hattrick in a WC final. If Geoff Hurst has to share that record, it ought to be someone special (and a hammer).

    In a few weeks, we move into a 60k seat stadium, we have just had a really fun and interesting season. Got a great manager, and a squad that will be improved over the summer. Dimi don't seem to be a guy motivated by money, but more motivated by playing great football and enjoying his chosen sport. Have a read of his past interviews to get an insight to what a 29 year old footballer who has been a bit erratic, finds his mojo. He's got the best fans in the world loving him, and slaven thinks he's the second coming. The clubs owners have said he's staying.
    I'm looking forward to seeing him duffing up keepers in the prem next season, wearing our new kit.

    West Ham are bracing themselves for a bid from Real Madrid for Dimitri Payet in the wake of Euro 2016 - he has scored goals in both of France's games so far.
  • Ravel49Ravel49
    I sense I could be doing this EVERYDAY

    Romaine

    The 'journos' certainly will.

    Why would the club be 'bracing' themselves?

    Here's how that conversation goes:

    (Diddy D's phone rings)

    - Hello, David Sullivan speaking.

    - Hi, this is Real Madrid. We'd like to buy Payet.

    - No. Goodbye.

    - Wait, wait, you haven't heard our offer. Hello? Hello? I think he hung up.
  • IronHerbIronHerb
    But it won't necessarily go like that Grey.

    - Hello, David Sullivan speaking.

    - Hi, this is Real Madrid. We'd like to buy Payet.

    - No. Goodbye. Oh hang on. Out of interest how much?

    - That much?

    - I'll let you know.

    “I’m so pleased he is playing so well. As for the future, Dimitri has five years left on his contract. There is no buy-out [clause] and we are building a team around him.”

    For me, money for Payet is like the old points on the board v games in hand argument. Having points in the bag is a better position to be in, IMO, than playing catch-up with midweek gams, knowing you 'might' overtake the opposition should you collect enough points.

    I would much rather have Payet in our squad over any amount of money offered because, as seen with Spurs and Liverpool, you can sell a star player for silly money, and chances are you will still be a worse side even if you reinvest all the cash in new players.

    We, as fans, do not benefit from his sale. The club and board do, financially, but that money does not come to us and then it is a complete unknown whether that money is widely invested.
  • Ravel49Ravel49
    But maybe the managers want to cash in

    Spend some time on the beach

    And who can blame them

    Lolololol

    One thing I have noticed is that on all of his IG posts he always tags West Ham.

    Not some one who is looking for a move ;ok

    At the moment
