West Ham chief Brady snaps back at Payet

West Ham vice-chairman Karren Brady has hit back at criticism from Marseille midfielder Dimitri Payet.

Brady wrote for The Sun: "Dimitri Payet says he got bored when West Ham went through a bad patch.

"Some excuse to go on strike that is. His reason at the time was his family were unhappy in England.

"Payet did well with us and we did well by him. He regained his international spot and, while we had defensive problems at the start of the season (a few pop up today at Bournemouth, too), a decent pro doesn't withdraw his labour.

"He, like us, should just move on."
