Up there with Devonshire for me, that season we had him was one of the most joyous ones of my 51 years of following this club and any cսnt who downplays it clearly never watched him play.

Yeah, “attention seeking desperate cսnt”.

38 apps with 8 goals in the French national team but yeah he was fucking useless.
38 international appearances for a supposed world class player 🤔

Had a good season for us, was otherwise a decent player in the French league.

Being decent in the French league doesn't equal a good season.

Most exciting player we've had by far in the past decade. At his best he was absolute world class and you almost wondered what he was doing here. At his worst (in the first season in the bowl) he was a disgrace.

Every time he was stood over a free kick you thought it was going in. Every time you needed a bit of magic, just like Di Canio, he seemed able to produce some.

Love a fucking maverick.

If you couldn't enjoy Payet for what he did, then football isn't for you.

In that 2015/16 season I always felt that in every game we had the most talented player on the pitch
Not often that has occurred if at all in living memory 
Briiliantly talented and probably our best ever free kick taker 

Not the same when we left UP & another reason why the move has killed the club
After that season and the Euros there was talk of Real Madrid being interested. I imagine they thought we can’t ‘progress’ by moving & then sell our best player

A lot of modern football can be boring and moribund at times. He was anything but. Just general excitement whenever he was on the ball. It felt like watching football as a kid again. 

Thank you Dimitri son. 
I did the same at N17 when Ravel Morrison scored a peach of a goal.

The Boleyn's pitch was smaller so they didn't have to run around as much, Soucek would have been in his element at Upton Park! 😂

Add in Noble and Kouyate to Payet and Lanzini - that’s our finest PL midfield. IMHO obviously!

Please don’t tell Sir Alf though, as there’s no pace or power in there at all. He’d probably have a coronary!

Superb player and I must confess I had never heard of him before he came.  You could argue with that talent he should have played for bigger clubs but their loss was our gain for a while.  We can't forget Lanzini that season as well though.  Dimi and Manu were just on fire, exactly what us fans liked to see at West Ham.  Just a shame Payet left and Lanzini's injury ruined him.

What a player he was. That first season I would argue there was no better attacking player in Europe.

dealcanvey wrote: 23 Mar 2026, 19:19 I remember watching the FA cup game against Man U when di canio scored against Barthez. I was with my grandad a lifelong hammer from Manor Park. He was a reserved man but that game he was jumping up and down in the living room. It was great!

Go forward some years we had another maverick player at old Trafford. Payet put that free kick against Man U in the FA Cup. Has to be pretty much 10 years to the day as my grandad was in hospital at the time. Took me back to that time when I was with him as a kid. He died couple days later but he would have loved Payet. I thought we were robbed in that tie. If we had see them off I’m sure we would have gone on to win it.

werent to be but what a player he was. We may not get a player like that in the premier league again let alone play for us!
