It appears West Ham manager Sam Allardyce’s obsession with Southampton’s Rickie Lambert won’t end this transfer window, with the Telegraph reporting that the striker won’t be allowed to leave.
Following the Saints decision to suspend forward Dani Osvaldo, after an altercation with Jose Fonte, it now means the Hammers Premier League rivals are short up top.
It still isn’t clear whether the England international was ever close to joining Big Sam at Upton Park.
Not sure West Ham qualify as rivals at the moment… He may go in the summer when West Ham are desperate to get back in the PL to pay for the empty seats in Olympic Stadium
Dear BFS he NEVER wanted to come to West Ham,how many times do you need to be rejected ?
It seems like no one wants to sign for Sam ,has he lost his charisma aswell as his mind
