Sunderland have been reported to have offered £3 m for Ulloa, now that is taking the mick. They have just flogged Van Aanholt for 14 million. Harry R reckons they are down and David M can do nothing to stop that happening.
He was so blunt, damning and totally disgraced with Payet's behavior , he without swearing slated him to the hilt and also slated the quality of the French League compared to the PL... It was like he was a ex Hammer !
Well I am glad the Payet saga is now over. I think £25 million is a decent return and we should be pleased to have him off our hands. He really was great last season, but as others have said, since the Euros he has been no better than any of the other players.
He says his stand off started a long time ago and my guess is it's been going on most of the season. He seems to think his behaviour was all in order and he regrets nothing.
I expected to come on site and see comments about Bilic (and Henry's) comments on Sky Sports page ;hmm
He was showered with love/affection and then decided he would not play for us anymore. So despite what was said about him not owing us an apology ( I fail to see why Bilic would think commenting in such a way wouldnt have the potential to irritate a large number of fans )
I was not impressed at all and lets just say he's not endeared himself to me. Maybe its just me overreacting? Maybe its too sensitive?
However, I think the least that could've been done was to big us up as IMO we MORE than deserved it ;angry
See Payet now claiming he was bored with the negative football we were playing which is why he wanted to leave. He reckons his career would have gone backwards (which is exactly what it was going when we signed him). He also said he discussed it with the club in the summer which I find bizarre because he seemed fine when he went to the euros.
See Payet now claiming he was bored with the negative football we were playing which is why he wanted to leave.
I saw a bit of an article covering this interview. it referred to him not enjoying playing defensive football. I took it to mean he didn't like tracking back..

Or words to that effect.
I think he basically has whatever budget he can raise himself.
It was like he was a ex Hammer !

Good luck Dmitri, WHU now moves on.

PREDICTIONS!
Luckily he actually feels the same as us about his behaviour so I don't have to put up with any nonsense!

Nothing to do with his family, and he was tapped up. In his own words.
