    But it wouldn't be end of discussion.

    It would come up constantly.

    If he'd said

    “Declan is not for sale, he is an integral part of our project & the winning culture we are trying to breed.”

    we'd all have known that the subtext was, 'unless a big club comes in with a big offer', so why bother pretending?

    Pretending that isn't the case would be treating us like we were stupid, imo.

    I sort of agree with Luke here, he should not have said that, even tho we all the know the reality of money talks, but he could have said he's loving his playing time at West Ham , has just sidned a lenghty new contract and at the moment he's a West Ham player and happy at being that...If he wanted to add what he said, he could have said that it depends on what the owners want to do..
    Pelle, IMO rather keep ur mouth shut...

    But then he's just spouting the same hot air other managers do. Since we all know it is true, I honestly fail to see why you think there is anything wrong in him actually telling the truth.

    When managers say the same old guff that we all know isn’t true it just annoys us all. He’s not said like he’s for sale, just that there’s a price.

    But Grey, IMO there was no point bringing it up ( what he said ) he could have opted just to say he with us and happy, end of.

    Presumably he was asked a direct question. And answered honestly. We all, including journos, know the truth. Whatever form words he used in his reply. Bit of a storm in a teacup imo.

    the price is right £300m works for me

    Some good comments from Moyes on Declan:

    My favourite line: 'I have watched the prices of some players who have gone to clubs recently and they could not lace Declan Rice's boots'

    Good stuff.

    I saw this and thought he'd signed another new deal

    That was cruel! Can a mod change that to just Declan Rice?
