West Ham have struggled to find their feet in the Premier League this season and there’s certainly an air of discontent around the London Stadium, a place the Hammers are yet to settle into properly.
Slaven Bilic’s position as manager is under serious threat, with the Croatian reportedly having two games to save his job, starting with this evening’s Carabao Cup tie against Tottenham Hotspur.
Plenty of off-field discussions continue to involve the Hammers though, distracting from the crucial games the club has over the course of the coming weeks, and a debate has ignited regarding a striker’s future after he made it clear he wants to leave.
Diafra Sakho, who scored the winning goal against Swansea prior to the international break, revealed in a recent interview that he’s still looking to leave West Ham and is eyeing an exit in the January transfer window.
Fans are understandably not happy, although some understand his position, and have taken to social media to discuss the 28-year-old’s situation.

I can vaguely understand what he's saying, but, he's gone about it awfully & he does come across as a very arrogant person alot of the time.

Bet you his "back injury" clears up when he signs for another club π Great player on his game but has a sulky and unprofessional attitude π‘

Sell him and bring Martinez in, will add more passion, skill and value

So we have players that donβt want to be here, players that donβt play for the manager and a clueless manager. Great π¬

Another reason we should be starting Martinez, least he will have the hunger and desire and want too impress π
