    It’s really not that uncommon, and a lot of the time players end up staying. The managers seem to often choose to leave players out.
  • LukerzLukerz
    Of course it would, which really puts the blame at Arnie’s door or Pelle’s. No doubt going from preparing with Arnie up top all week to a completely different forward style in Andy less than 24 hours before the game, must've influenced the performance.
  • LukerzLukerz
    Although Higuain is much further down the line to moving than Arnie.

    During my working career I,like many others,had many offers from rival companies most of which included a salary hike, some being a very large hike.It would never have occurred to me to not give 100% to the company that paid my wages even though I was talking to other companies.
    My head may have been elsewhere but my employers would never have known it.

    I think that goes for most Slacker, I may not be remembering accurately but was it Michael Carrick who played a day or so after his Dad had passed away as he knew the game was important to us. I seem to recall someone did and received a most heartfelt round of applause from an appreciative crowd.

    Your username must clearly be in jest as you couldn't have been that much of a slacker if you were getting headhunted throughout your career!

    Where as mine would.... Issues with depression and an often an inability to cope with stress can (but not often) effect my work. A Chinese Uni offers me much more money to move across the planet, my head would probably not be in the game.

    Suze, if you went to China as a Health and Safety officer, you would definitely not be idle.

    My head is completely and 100% IN the game.

    via BBC: The ES is reporting West Ham have told Arnie he can go in the summer, but we won't sell him this window. If that means he trains with the kids, so be it (or words to that effect).

    Edit: heres the link https://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/westham/west-ham-transfer-news-marko-arnautovic-will-not-be-sold-in-january-can-leave-summer-a4044596.html

    I was under the impression he loved West Ham (was it via Noble or Antonio?) so, if the move to China is off, why would he seek a move (as opposed to having his head turned by an offer). ;whistle He's already gone (mentally) for me. So even if he plays and plays well it'll get a meh reaction from me(h) ;whome

    Good - I’m so glad they’ve taken this stance, it sends the right message. If he doesn’t like it off to the stiffs he goes....

    This picture - they’re complete opposites

    You don't know that. No club has offered Nobes £200k a week.

    And we don’t know what he’s been offered elsewhere as he’s stayed loyal when rumours of other clubs came sniffing they surely wouldn’t of offered the same money to entice him and no signing on fees to boot

    The photo of Arnie and Nobes tells me that one has a dodgy barnet...........


























    and the other one might be off to China................

    Both.
  • SuzanneClaretSuzanneClaret
    Please do not be comparing Nobes and Arnie on the commitment to a football club.

    Don’t belittle Nobes love for West Ham by saying no one offered him stupid money to go elsewhere.
