Or perhaps we just don't understand the genius of the board
West Ham United have reportedly agreed a deal to sell youngster Grady Diangana to West Bromwich Albion for an initial £12 million, and it's safe to say their fans don't have a clue why they're doing so.
Diangana spent last season on loan at the Hawthorns, playing 30 league matches and scoring eight goals as he helped the Baggies return to the Premier League.

Many Hammers fans had thought that the club would seek to hold onto the 22-year-old, especially given the side's top scorer last season was Michael Antonio on 10.
Recent comments from manager David Moyes had also suggested that he was looking to build a team around young, exciting players.
Instead, the club have decided to cash in on one of their most talented young players and sell him to a side who may well be competing in and around the same league position as them next term.
Understandably, the transfer has gone done like a tonne of fucking bricks among West Ham fans, many of whom are already at the end of their tether with the ownership.
Below is an example of some of their sentiments:
