If you follow any of the West Ham players on social media (as unlikely as that might be), then you'll have seen the endless amount of selfies of the squad in Dubai on 'warm weather training'.

To be fair, summer is on the way and the weather is improving in London so warm weather training makes sense for the Hammers, right?

Well, one particular West Ham fan really doesn't agree with Big Sam's jolly over to Dubai and decided to raise the issue at a fans forum last night, leaving poor Stewart Downing left to answer the question.

As you can see in the video above, he really, really, really, really, REALLY doesn't agree.

Maybe the angry supporter in question was onto something.

Having seen their incredible early season form tail away since the turn of the year, the Hammers took their trip away during a weekend they had fixture free weekend (thanks to being knocked out of the FA Cup at the hands of West Brom).

Thing is, the warm weather training hasn't really helped things at Upton Park. West Ham have won one and lost two on their return from Dubai.

Ah well, at least they got a nice tan.
