Fans of West Ham United have been reacting to a report on two players who David Moyes would like to sell in the next transfer window.
According to The Telegraph, the Scottish manager wants to be rid of Jack Wilshere and Carlos Sanchez (via @westham_gossip), which had lots of supporters talking.

I’m sure he does but on their current wages no one is going to buy them and take on that commitment not even if they were on a free

Who’s gonna buy either of them ??

Will West Ham be able to find a buyer for Jack Wilshere in the next transfer window?Yes, there'll be someoneNo, there's no chance |
While the English midfielder has a year and two months remaining on his contract (per Transfermakrt), the Colombian’s deal with the Hammers is up in June of this year (per Transfermarkt), so, his sale seems unlikely.
However, after the report on the two desired player sales was relayed to supporters (per @westham_gossip), fans continued airing their disbelief.
Would be lucky to give them away. Wilshere is a fantastic player, just barely plays.

Be hard enough to give them away

That’s harder than making a signing

Good luck with that

What do we think?
As can be seen in the responses from West Ham supporters, there is strong disbelief that the club will be able to find a transfer destination for either of the two players.
With Wilshere and Sanchez having been the second and third-worst performers for the Hammers in the Premier League with the Englishman on a 5.99/10 average rating and the Colombian on a 6.14/10 average rating (per WhoScored), though, the report comes as no surprise.
