Good riddance
It's always been all about him and now the rat deserts the fast sinking ship which is indicative of his character or lack of it.
He never gave a shit about West ham and would have pissed off to city long ago if it wasn't for the betting enquiry.
His deliberate sending off against Liverpool on a day we lost a true club legend and the epitome of everything Lucas isn't was disrespectful in the extreme and in my view he wasn't fit to wear the shirt after that..
Plenty of people make excuses for him and point to his undoubted talent being a positive but overall the risk to reward ratio when he played was to the teams detriment.
A mercenary and prima donna who got an easy ride compared to the stick others got for wanting to get away.

Oh come on that's just silly, we beat QPR because Fernandes wasn't playing after he was when we lost 3-0 to Wolves, we lost 3-0 to Wolves cause Paqueta wasn't playing... We hadn't won a league game without Paqueta before today... Anything can be twisted like that... They're all in it together and it isn't down to any individuals.
He missed 5 games in 2025. We won 2 and only lost 1 of them.
He missed 2 games in 2026 so far, we won both of them.
Winning 4 and losing only 1 out of the 7 he hasn't played is significant for a team that has won so few games over the last year or so.
I know it's a simplistic take, but I have long held that his play (losing possession, diving all the time) undermines the team.
He also missed the Wolves game easily our worst performance of the season... Selective facts... So easy to pick games.. We also didn't win other games he missed... It's utter nonsense.. Not just him but any single player...
Won't be long before you can say "we never got relegated the whole time Paqueta played for us, and now he's left were in The Championship"
I'm gutted it didn't work out. He's far too skilful for the iterations of West Ham he was part of and the safety net coward managers. I didn't even want to sell him to Manchester City for £85million plus Palmer. Now a shadow of the player he was then, half because of the Betway nonsense and half because we beat it out of him.

You always hoped and expected more from him especially with consistency. There was the odd moment of genius but really far too far and few between. He didn't become worth his place in the team by the end. You were always waiting for something special that so rarely actually came.
As I said on another thread, I think he checked out as soon as the Man City move fell apart and the FA came for him. To add there's no doubt the refs absolutely marked his card (no pun intended) and he got consistently treated very poorly by them.

Generally flattered to decieve and delivered very little end product.
Probably was at fault for as many goals as he scored.
his silly hair and silly dancing will not be missed.

He also was consistently the player who could progress us into the final third.
Yep agree with that, he was decent between around half way and up to the final third but rarely did anything in the final third. That's not an opinion, it's a fact. Piss poor from a so called creative playmaker.

Say what you like about Paqueta, but I'm much less confident in our ability to score a penalty now! Bowen got lucky the other day, and he's not nearly as good at pens as Lucas was.

Club Statement:
West Ham United can confirm that Lucas Paquetá has been given permission to undergo a medical and discuss personal terms with Brazilian club Flamengo, after a fee was agreed for his permanent transfer.
Lucas has made it clear that, for personal and family reasons, he wishes to return home to Brazil and make a fresh start after being cleared in July 2025 of FA misconduct charges that took two years to be resolved – a situation that caused him significant mental strain.
Despite the Club doing everything possible to persuade Lucas to stay, he has remained adamant that his wish is to leave. Therefore, the Head Coach and the Club have reluctantly agreed to accept his transfer request.
West Ham United would like to take this opportunity to thank our management, players, staff and loyal supporters for the unwavering and devoted support they have shown to Lucas throughout his time at the Club and, in particular, over the past two and a half years.
The Club will make no further comment at this time.
Quite an unusual press from the club, suppose they just want to get their side of the story over for fans to understand what happened, even though it was pretty much an open secret anyway.
I have no emotion either way about him leaving, mainly because I didn't rate the show pony. A couple of tricks on the half way line ain't of any use, he was clearly incapable of doing anything in the final third at this level, barely laid a glove on defenders aside from the vey odd fleeting moment. Glad we got good dough for him.

Agreed axeman ( he has failed at West Ham but better having him than no one ) assuming we are not going to replace him this window ( even a loan). Which at this moment looks to be whats gonna happen.

Never lived up the hype / reputation. He failed in Italy as a number 10, then was successful with Lyon as a number 8. Rarely played that role at West Ham under successive managers and then subjected to a betting trial ( by media ) that lasted 2 years.
In a much better team he may achieve some consistency but for us he failed is the harsh truth. Not necessarily all of his own doing but nonetheless a failed stint overall imo.

Not even statistically significant
Win rate with him playing in the team: 15%
Win rate without him playing in the team: 57%
That's statistically significant. A wide confidence interval because of the small sample size, but it's significant.

When he scored his penalty against Brighton, he celebrated like he'd won us the game single handedly...
bloke infront of me at the LS pointed out that when Welbeck scored his first penalty he ran into the goal, picked up the ball and jogged back to the centre spot.
It's all about him

His head has gone since the FA crap (I still wonder if it was some underhand tactic to stop his big move?)
now I’m sorry for him but he needs to go home and find his head again. Get his mojo back.
hes playing 4/10
most games and feels we owe him a living.
sell at best price we can get
replace with best we can sign

He's an occasional match of the day player .
I'm BORED with him and his baggage.
30 M British pounds is acceptable to me at this point.
Having people that don't want to be there and are ultimately unhappy is never a good thing.
Without all that carry on with the betting he'd have been gone two yrs ago FFS.
