Queens Park Rangers manager Neil Warnock has weighed into the Carlos Tevez saga, saying "the sooner he leaves the country the better".
He said: "I can't see it being sorted by him staying. Two weeks' ban is a disgrace. Within a few months, he will be kissing another badge."
He scored the goal that helped the Hammers beat Manchester United and retain their Premier League status at the expense of Sheffield United, who were managed by Warnock at the time.
When asked if he would consider taking the Argentina forward on loan at Loftus Road, Warnock, who has little love for Tevez, unsurprisingly scoffed.
The 62-year-old wants the game's governing body Fifa to put longer bans on players who show the kind of disobedience towards their managers Tevez is alleged to have displayed this week.
Warnock added: "The top authorities have got to come up with something because, quite honestly, two weeks' ban is a disgrace for an offence like that.
"You should be banned until January because a manager has no option but to say you won't play for the club again.
"You can't do that because the PFA [Professional Footballers' Association] would cry foul and get solicitors involved.
"Fifa have to come up with an answer."
