You cannot tell me that Dimitri Payet has shown the same interest or hunger as he did last season.
I have watched a lot of West Ham this season and Payet has looked like he doesn’t want to be there. He doesn’t seem as fit as he did last season and his body language smacks of a player who wants to leave.
After shining for France at Euro 2016 Payet has clearly thought: ‘I am too good for this. This is not for me any more.’ He will feel like he should be playing for one of Europe’s elite clubs.
