He’s not the only one. A real shame. Since his injury he’s been nowhere near the player he was. It’s understandable, as he’s obviously worried about his knee, and as a result avoids all contact. Unfortunately, time to move on.

Should West Ham United be looking to sell Manuel Lanzini in the summer?Yes, not good enough anymoreNo, he just needs more time |
Over his 19 appearances for the Hammers in the Premier League this season, Lanzini has a 6.65/10 average rating, leaving him as only the 12th-best performer in the squad (per WhoScored).
So, following the report which suggested that Moyes is losing patience with the 27-year-old (per football.london), fans continued to air that they felt the Argentine’s time was up.
Cant blame Moyes, I personally think Zini has turned into the Jesse Lingard of West Ham… poor performance after poor performance

Sad to see such a talented player leave but he hasn’t put in a shift whatsoever.

What do we think?
Judging from the responses from supporters, it is clear to see that they are at the end of the line with their support for the Argentine midfielder.
With only three assists and no goals in 19 Premier League appearances so far this season, compared to five goals and seven assists over 27 Premier League appearances in 2017/18 (per Transfermarkt), supporters may be right that Lanzini is no longer the player he was.
