West Ham outcast Julien Faubert vows to quit Upton Park after bust-up with bosses
Julien Faubert has launched a stinging attack on West Ham - and insisted he will quit Upton Park in the summer. [LNB]The Frenchman, a ?6.1million buy from Bordeaux in 2007 and with a year left on his contract, is furious at the way he was treated earlier this month when he missed the Hammers' clash with Birmingham. [LNB] No more: Julien Faubert insists his West Ham career is at an end[LNB]Faubert was accused of walking out on Avram Grant's side when he failed to heed a late call-up for the substitutes' bench on February 6. West Ham lost 1-0. But the 27-year-old said he was preoccupied with his baby son in hospital. He claimed West Ham used him as an excuse for defeat, and tried to tarnish his name. [LNB]'My story with West Ham is at an end," the France international said. 'I still have two months to play for them in theory this season, but I know that they will not call on me. I worked flat out for them even when my mother died, and I have never created any problems. [LNB]'At the time of the Birmingham game my newly-born son was ill and in hospital. I spent the Friday and Saturday with him, and could not go to training. [LNB]'My bosses knew the situation. On the eve of the match they told me I was in the reserve squad, but when I showed up on Sunday the assistant manager told me the first team needed me as a player was injured. So I jumped in my car, rushed home and then on to Upton Park, but when I got there - surprise, surprise - nobody was injured and I was not in the squad. [LNB]'I left the ground, and went to see my son as he'd had a relapse. On my way I got a phone call saying that a lad (James Tomkins) had got injured five minutes before kick-off, and that I had to come back to replace him - but that was impossible.[LNB]'Afterwards the bosses said that I had not wanted to return, and that I had lacked respect towards them. They wanted to tarnish my name and my image. [LNB]'They made me out to be a mercenary. West Ham sought excuses after their defeat against Birmingham. This chapter is now closed - but so is mine at the club.'[LNB] WEST HAM v Liverpool: Upson looks doubtful to be fit for Reds clashBa: Pressure to stay up with West Ham?
