Former West Ham United midfielder Alou Diarra has claimed that he wasted the past two years of his career at the club.
The 32-year-old, who joined the Hammers in summer 2012, had his contract cancelled at Upton Park earlier this month.
Diarra has now insisted that he made a bad decision in moving to West Ham after making just six Premier League appearances in two seasons.
"I feel I have lost two years in a career. It counts," he told L'Equipe. "There was no solution. I was very ill-advised."
Diarra is currently training with Bordeaux.
