Michail Antonio has revealed that it’s not only the fans who expect Dimi Payet to hit the net when he shapes to take a free kick!
Antonio said: “We had a few opportunities in the first half against Accrington and we had a few in the second half, which we still didn’t take. But that boy Dimi turned up with a free-kick again.
“He’s just special, isn’t he?
“It’s not just the fans who look to him as the go-to guy, we do as well. It’s one of those things, especially with free-kicks, where he is probably up there with one of the best in the world at taking them.
“So when you get in that situation, you’re thinking, ‘Ah, he’s got this’ — before he kicks it, you’re thinking, ‘It’s probably going to be a goal’.
“He’s top of the assists and he has managed to get his first goal of the season now, so, hopefully, he can keep going on.”
