Aston Villa could rival West Ham United for €25m attacker with 13 goal contributions
Aston Villa are keeping tabs on the contract situation of Manchester United forward Jesse Lingard, who is currently on loan at West Ham United, Football Insider claims.

‘Out of the team’, ‘Terrible today’ – Some West Ham fans tear into 30-yr-old after defeat
West Ham United were beaten 3-2 by Newcastle United in the Premier League yesterday and the Hammers will be disappointed with the way they lost the game. Unnecessary defensive errors cost the Hammers vital three points yesterday and the defeat could be damaging to their top-four aspirations.

The experienced centre back was sent off and the Hammers struggled to contain the Magpies after that. Dawson has been in very poor form over the last five matches and he has scored two own goals in that period as well. Yesterday’s sending off seems to have infuriated the Hammers fans and it will be interesting to see if David Moyes keeps him in the starting line-up once his suspension is ove...
