West Ham will be willing sell Ravel Morrison for £10million

Although he has the potential, I wouldn't want to pay that much for him! I know with Cornelius we paid 7.5m and Morrison has actually proved he can play in the Prem, but it's still a gamble if he is a loose cannon. If we pay £10m and he scores/creates the goals to keep us up it will be a well spent £10m in my eyes though.

Surely 10mill could be spent wisely elsewhere?

It's the problem with the Jan window as clubs get held to ransom. What would he be worth in the summer?

Take him on loan until the end of the season and pay the money if we stay up. Although 5m would be more suitable.

West Ham have indicated that they would accept 8m.

10 mil for Morrison would be money well spent I reckon, very creative midfielder. Bit of a wild one apparently but some of the best players ever were too.

Sure we'd be able to recoup that if we sold him at a later date as well. Young and English means he'll always be over priced.

Not worth that kind of money IMO but something between the 5m Fulham offered and the 10m WHU want sounds about right.

Yes. Annis, Bellamy had a similar attitude all through his career. If theres anyone who can relate to Ravel and get the best out of him its him. If Bellamy can put his shoulder around the lad and get the best out of him and make him take out his attitude on other teams on the pitch then its as good as having a near in form Bellamy in the side to be honest because Ravel can be unplayable when he gets going. Plus his stock will rise massively. Get him in and a striker and I'd be happy with our business if we can then get a defender on loan.

His attitude is ten times worse than Bellamys ever was.

Bellamy just had a desire to win and sometimes his desire spilled over but Morrison is a scumbag who would be selling crack if he wasnt a footballer.

A liability and not worth the risk

It's not actually Polo.

Urban Myths.

Ok he doesnt come from public school but the real talent very rarely does.

Under the right people he's quality and no doubt what your Manager knows too.

Tan will bottle the payment though. :thumbup:

Ravel Morrison could leave Hammers - Sam Allardyce
Former Manchester United starlet due a massive pay rise if club receives £10m offer

Sam Allardyce has accepted that Ravel Morrison could leave West Ham United this winter, saying that the midfielder may have been unsettled despite a “derisory” transfer offer from Fulham.
Morrison, who joined the Hammers in 2012 from Manchester United, is valued at £10m by the east London club but Fulham’s initial bid, confirmed last week by their manager Rene Meulensteen, was rejected.
Meulensteen said the 20-year-old, who is expected to play in tonight’s Capital One Cup semi-final second leg against Manchester City, was keen on a move to Craven Cottage but following his comments West Ham have lodged an official complaint to the Premier League accusing Fulham of tapping up the player.
Under the terms of Morrison’s contract his wage would increase to £60,000 a week if West Ham received an offer of £10m but then decided to keep him at the club while his current salary is approximately one quarter of that amount.
Allardyce said the January window was a time when speculation could turn the heads of players but he refused to rule out the possibility of Morrison leaving.
When asked if he was tempted to sell him, Allardyce said: “Well, who knows? You take each day as it comes in this window.”
