Plenty of West Ham United fans have been pleading for the club to part ways with midfielder Manuel Lanzini.
The Hammers signed the Argentina international from the United Arab Emirates club Al Jazira on loan for the duration of the 2015/16 campaign, with the option to buy permanently if we chose. After a successful season, the club tied him down to a four-year contract.
In 129 appearances, Lanzini has scored 21 goals and provided 20 assists but has bore the brunt of criticism from the London Stadium faithful regarding his inconsistent showings on the pitch.
Should West Ham sell Lanzini?
Yes
No
The 27-year-old was openly criticised by David Moyes during his first spell as manager as he wasn’t satisfied with his level of performances. Over the years, he hasn’t improved as a player in the manner we were all hoping for.
With this in mind, supporters were far from complimentary towards the Argentinian and made their feelings clear on social media. One fan said that the club simply has to “cash in”, while another demanded that the club should “get rid ASAP”.
Flog him

Sell for anything around £20m!
Which I think is a realistic fee given how many still rate him & his age.
We need to be looking at younger & hungrier players like Eze to come in for the likes of him, Yarm & Sanchez over the summer— Steven McCarthy (@StevenMcCarthy9) April 15, 2020
Sell without a moments hesitation.

Sell. It may be the only way to keep Moyes from playing him.
