I've always known I could play football. I went to Arsenal and West Ham as a kid, but I took a year out because I wanted to play with my mates and get that competitiveness back. I got that fighting spirit and I never want to lose that.

Jonjo Shelvey

I was at Arsenal but I didn't like the manager of the under-10s at the time so I went to West Ham where my brother played.

Jonjo Shelvey

I think that with West Ham, it was more complicated for me. It happened naturally; there was urgency to leave West Ham.

Dimitri Payet

My family have always been West Ham fans, so growing up, I used to go and watch them, and so I was a West Ham supporter.

Jack Wilshere

If I was a normal player at West Ham and wanted to join a Chinese club, nobody would have said anything. But since I was a leader at West Ham and thought about that offer, I was suddenly a bad man.

Marko Arnautovic

When I was a player, you only left the club if they wanted to get rid of you. That was your team - if you were at West Ham, you didn't leave until the manager wanted to replace you. You didn't think about playing for Arsenal or Chelsea.

Harry Redknapp

I actually had the chance to sign for Newcastle before I went to West Ham; I didn't in the end because they had got rid of their reserve team. There were a few clubs interested but I liked what West Ham had to offer and never regretted signing for them, I loved it straight away.

Michael Carrick

West Ham play a speficic type of game - football.

Artur Boruc

I wish to play again for West Ham before I finish my career.

Carlos Tevez

You want to play in the Premier League, full stop. You don't want to play in the Championship. I've played there and I don't want to play there again for West Ham.

Mark Noble

I just came to West Ham to play football, the rest is not for me to say.

Carlos Tevez

I struggled to get into any sort of team as a kid, but I struggled along and, though it's amazing how long it has actually taken me, I am finally in the Premiership and to play against my old mates from West Ham, the team I supported as a boy, was unbelievable.
