West Ham Ready To Offer For Arsenal's Rosicky - Here's Why Arsenal Need To Keep Hold

Sam Allardyce is a man who enjoys having a laugh with people. How many times have we seen him poking fun at players or making jokes about other personnel in the sport, quickly proceeding by his rich, poignant laugh? Fat Sam is a character, and there will be plenty of people who think that this is the latest of his jokes, but Sports Direct News are reporting an exclusive story that the former Bolton, Blackburn and Newcastle boss is ready to offer Tomas Rosicky a deal to move to West Ham next summer, if he does not extend his Gunners contract.

I say a joke because the Czech international has been one of the most outstanding players in the Premier League this season for me.

The 33-year-old has overcome so much to get to where he is right now and we are finally getting to see the best of him, and to drop to a side like West Ham, with all due respect to the Hammers, would be strange for me to take on board.

Rosicky is now in his last year of his contract and the reports suggest that he will only be offered an extension if he reaches 25 appearances this term, but I can't see the playmaker going anywhere if he keeps up his current form.

Rosicky has played 11 games so far and scored once. Six of those appearances have come in the league, where he has made 10 key passes and had four shots. He is an instrumental part to the Gunners side right now, as this clip will show you.
