Every day that I wake up and see that Demitri Payet hasn’t been purchased from West Ham for obscene amounts of money is a complete shock to me. He’s practically a one-man team out there, with his insane free kicks and pinpoint golazos. Well, you can add his unreal tekkers to the list because the man could out-juggle a clown college professor—with a piece of chewing gum to boot.

Today before West Ham’s match against Sunderland, Payet decided to warm up by juggling his goddamn chewing gum. Sure, Mesut Ozil has done something similar.

Good thing he’s given brand new boots before every game—it could be a nasty habit otherwise.
