Frederic Piquionne: Fallen down pecking order at Upton Park

Agent Willie McKay has confirmed Doncaster are in talks with West Ham over a loan move for striker Frederic Piquionne.

McKay has overseen a number of high-profile signings at the Keepmoat Stadium in recent months, including El-Hadji Diouf, Pascal Chimbonda and Habib Beye, and is now addressing boss Dean Saunders' calls for a new forward after top scorer Billy Sharp completed his move to Southampton during the January transfer window.

Piquionne has fallen down the pecking order at Upton Park following the arrivals of Nicky Maynard and Ricardo Vaz Te last month and a possible move to Doncaster could become reality when the emergency loan window opens on Wednesday.

"We are talking to West Ham about taking Piquionne on loan," McKay told Skysports.com.

"He is a player I know a lot about having followed him when he was in France with St Etienne, Monaco and Lyon before coming to Portsmouth and then West Ham.

"Dean is keen to get a new striker in and hopefully we can do a deal for Piquionne."

here has only been 3 players who made me hold my breath in dread when they picked the ball up anywhere near our penalty area...in their prime Scholes and Giggs... and always Drogba. Awesome player who on his day was the best striker in the world in my opinion.

remember him scoring a 25-yarder, either the season just gone or the one before, against Bolton at the Reebok. I've never seen a ball hit that hard before in my entire life. You could almost feel the shockwave from his foot contacting it 40 yards away in the stands. Didier Droga. You might not have loved him, but you just had to be in awe of him.

den Hazard, def. - 1) that girl in a club who makes eyes at you all night, who allows you to buy her a drink and walk her home arm in arm, who then gives you a suggestive kiss on her doorstep before declaring how tired she is and how she has to be up early the next day. 2) A cock tease.
