Conte doesnt fancy Batshuyai. Perhaps the Costa thing was Contes reason for trying to buy Llorente?
Just realized what thread I'm on... Can I request that members are allowed a 24 hour swearing amnesty on the Payet thread? ;wink Awww go on? Go on? Go on? (apply Irish female accent)
Well, I suspect that it is what your read, rather than heard, and if you aren't prepared to share your source, and have that evaluated, then don't be surprised if your comments are dismissed as 'rumour' and blue cheese.
And it is a bit disingenuous to cite your unsubstantiated rumour as though it were a given and accepted fact, and then make a point based on it.
Slizzy said he heard it somewhere. Shouldn't have to give a detailed explanation!
Izzy doesn't HAVE TO do anything. He doesn't have to reply, if asked.
But imo it shows respect to other site members if you make clear how reliable or not the info is - we are all forming our opinions and discussing the issues based on what info is out there. If someone is posting info that's just made up, it's wasting all our time.
Garbage in, garbage out.
Posting stuff you know is made up is wumming, which is against site rules. I'm not suggesting that's what Izzy is doing, at all, but equally, I don't think everything he posts is carven on tablets of stone in the Lord's own handwriting. ;biggrin

I wasn't surprised at anything and didn't question what was being asked I just replied.
Why get so snotty?
If you don't want to believe it then that's fine, no problem at all.
Since the Bosman ruling, contracts are constructed a different way. Payer agrees to play for West Ham and nobody else, for a fixed period. If Payet wishes to break the contract, he has to pay a sum stipulated in the release clause. Marseilles have told West Ham that they are willing to pay this for him, and West Ham can choose to allow them or not. They cannot force Payet to accept 50 million from a Chinese club. Payet absolutely gets a say in where he plays next.
Terrible piece. It's embarrassing that anybody could possibly be siding with Payet over the club.
Poor, poor Payet, paid millions and millions, adored and worshipped, name sung every minute of every game. What a terrible injustice has been done to him by West Ham not spending £100 million in the summer ;lol ;doh
Before West Ham he was called Dimitri Who? Now we've failed him? What a joke.
Comments

Payet MkII in the offing ;hmm

You were ;ok -ing while I was editing my post
You might want to read back and see if you still think it's ;ok
;diop
If Costa leaves Chelsea they will likely not win the league
Anyone is free to post what they 'heard'.
Personally, I think it's courtesy to say where it was heard.
My issue in this instance is when an 'I heard', unsourced and unverified rumour is subsequently used as though it is a known fact.

You said: .
That suggests it is a given fact.
Subsequently, you said it was 'what you heard', without choosing to identify the source.
For me, confusing rumour and fact is unhelpful.
