What a pathetic way to run a club. Instead of building a team around Declan, they can't wait to offload the kid.
They really are fucking vermin of the highest order.
Futile trying to build a team around a player who will obviously outgrow the club sooner rather than later. Let's be honest West Ham isn't a big enough, or ambitious enough, club to hold onto players of Rice's exceptional ability.
Sad but true.
Why Is There Only One Monopolies Commission. Isn't That A Monopoly?
The Gonz is not happy that Matt law (Telegraph sports correspondent) made comments regarding Declan's future career, while contributing to a Chelsea podcast.

Not even the most blinkered supporter expects Declan to stay here forever, and there should be no doubt in our minds that when we can maximise his value we will (as around 98% of other clubs would do), but the one thing that isn't happening right now is us peddling him to the market and no-one has enquired.
Now if our Brazilian fella thinks that pointing out bullshit is sucking up to the board, then it says more about him than me

As it is with all but the biggest clubs in the world. The key though is that when you sell your best players you recruit well - think Dortmund, and there in lies the problem. Will we ever get anywhere near the success they have had? (I wonder how many answers will be "not while the vermin are still here" Zzzzzzz

Well that's an interesting interpretation of what happened in June. Let's remind ourselves shall we,West Ham through media outlets, announced
that the price for Declan Rice was 100 million sterling.
Now, that sounds very much like 'peddling' something to the market to me...

It was March, and it was Moyes responding to a question from the press when he said he didn't agree with the owners view that Rice was worth £100m, he felt he was worth more.
