Jesse Lingard has sent a new four-word social media post from a luxury taxi as the West Ham deal decision deadline looms large.
At the weekend we reported on Hammers News that Jesse Lingard appeared to be talking in riddles about West Ham again as he continues to train with the club.
Free agent Lingard has been training with West Ham for the last three weeks as the club and David Moyes weigh up signing him on a short-term deal.
After an initially frosty reaction to the news Lingard could rejoin the Hammers, many fans have warmed to the idea.

But West Ham allegedly face competition from the likes of Wolves ahead of the deadline for clubs to submit their squads to the Premier League at 2pm on Wednesday September 13th.
Lingard has been on something of a West Ham charm offensive of late with his posts on social media.
He then appeared to be talking in riddles again with a cryptic message having played 75 minutes for West Ham against Ipswich in a behind-closed-doors friendly during the international break.
Now Lingard has sent a new four-word social media post from a luxury taxi with the West Ham deal decision deadline looming large.
Four words, two pictures but one big answer awaits
At the time of writing the Hammers have less than 44 hours to sign Lingard in order to register him as part of their Premier League squad.
Now he has posted pictures of himself on Snapchat with his feet out-stretched in what looks to be a luxury nine-seater private taxi featuring starlights in the roof and leather seats.
In the post Lingard has said: “The grind don’t stop.”
That may suggest he has posted the pictures on his way back from West Ham training as he works hard to prove his fitness in the hope of a deal.
Others might wonder whether he is on his way somewhere else ahead of the deadline.
We won’t have to wait too long for an official answer.
Supporters were shocked by claims last week that West Ham are only willing to offer him a six-month deal, particularly in light of the reported interest from Wolverhampton Wanderers.
