The Sunday Mirror:

Nigel Reo-Coker is seething after discovering his role in the £15million deadline deal that never happened.

The West Ham skipper is on a collision course with his club after he became embroiled in a tug of war between Manchester United and Arsenal.

Reo-Coker was ready to travel to Old Trafford on Thursday but the Hammers finally rejected United's £12m bid.

The 22-year-old midfielder was furious when he later discovered that West Ham had rejected Arsenal's £15m offer for him.

Sources close to the player claim Reo-Coker wasn't informed of the Arsenal bid.
