    Lanzini in for an extension when he's not contracted by us? Good work Goal.

    Lanzini is only contracted until the end of June so any new contract will be an extension.

    I don't know if it has been posted before, but a brief interview with Dimi on BT Sport is here: http://sport.bt.com/payet-i-dont-want-to-leave-west-ham-i-love-the-fans-91364039024794

    Apparently it's only a one-year extension but I assume ups his wage.

    It doesn't matter if it's only an extra year as long as there's a massive buyout figure put in alongside his pay rise
  • IronHerbIronHerb
    But you don't want a buyout figure as someone may meet it and then you are in trouble. With no buyout figure they would have to pay what you want or we don't sell.

    True dat ;ok
  • TwistandShoutTwistandShout
    I think the new contract shows that we won't sell him for any price and he's more than happy to stay here...

    The love story continues...

    And the OS. I'm a little excited COYI

    I just don't think I understand ;hmm

    We had him until age 32-33 what have we got him until now? Or may be we have put in a buy out clause in case at age 30 someone wants to pay us 70m for him.

    Hoping we haven't made a massive over reaction to some good recent form.
  • EXETERHAMMEREXETERHAMMER
    I dont think it is an over reaction. Without Payet this season I would guess that we could be a few positions lower in the league. We bought him for a very good price and he is our best current player and in my eyes the best player we have had since Di Canio.

    I am delighted.

    From DS on the OS
    Today’s news means Mark Noble, Winston Reid, Diafra Sakho, Aaron Cresswell, James Tomkins, Adrian, James Collins and now Dimi have all signed new long-term contracts in the past year – all confirmation that we want to keep our best players here for as long as possible.

    In line with our policy, a few other key players might be similarly rewarded in the next six months, so keep an eye on whufc.com and our social media channels for the big announcements!
    And from Dimi:
    "For me it's a big step, an enormous show of faith, particularly from the Chairman [David] Sullivan and from the manager," said the popular No27. "I thank them for that, and I am proud and I'm happy to prolong the adventure with West Ham.
    Showing him the love.

    Hopefully now he'll get back to form.........

    Only kidding, you can see he's trying but you can also see he's struggling being the centre of our creativeness and can imagine he'll be the happiest man to see Lanzini alongside him
  • horshamhammerhorshamhammer
    Payet's Agent did well. Got his client a huge pay rise after only playing a handful of games.
  • claretandblueskyclaretandbluesky
    His agent did very well. I really hope he is performing at the level he has this season for the best part of that contract but my instinct tells me he will get worked out pretty soon or be regularly taken out by the opposition and we may have reacted with a sense of urgency that was not actually needed 8 months into a five year contract. I believe Sakho's agent did the same last season and that hasn't exactly paid off to date.

    It's hard to be too critical or congratulatory without knowing the details of course and I recognise that.
