Dyer to cost West Ham £30m

This is how most fans will remember the Dyer era at West Ham.

West Ham's Kieron Dyer will have cost the club £30 million by the time his contract is up, even though he has started only five games for the club.

The Hammers bought the injury-prone midfielder on a four-year contract from Newcastle for £7 million in August 2007, and handed him a £70,000-a-week despite the club's medical team expressing concerns at time.

West Ham also had to pay £1m in agents' fees to push the deal through, which means that with wages and bonuses included the entire deal will cost the Hammers around £30m.

I guess Berbatov and Robinho can rest easy now.  This is clearly the worst £30 million plus transfer ever.
