West Ham in the Sunday Papers

In The Mirror Matthew Upson compares Robert Green to David Seaman and believes he is unlucky not to be in the England squad.

The Sunday People say West Ham are plotting an £8million double bid for reading duo Leroy Lita and Nicky Shorey in January. Steve Coppell has a frosty relationship with Lita and wants rid of the player. The striker was ruled out for a month after claiming he injured a leg stretching a leg in bed.

However West Ham will face competition from Portsmouth for the player rated at £4million pounds.

Shorey like Lita has 18 months to run on his existing contract but has snubbed a new contract offer.

The News of of the World say West Ham are hoping to lure Stephen Carr away from Newcastle. The Republic of Ireland rightback would welcome a transfer window return to London.
