Issa Diop is set for quite a reception should he appear for Fulham who provide the opposition on Sunday at the London Stadium.

The French central defender of course forced his way out of the Hammers after allegedly being told he was very much the last man in the central defensive pecking order.

The only saving grace was that with the club unable to replace him late on ensuring that Wolves hopes of landing Craig Dawson were entirely scuppered.

Diop effectively staged his own demonstration come strike, which of course went down very badly indeed with the Hammer fans and given that he may well appear on Sunday he can expect a pretty hostile reception.

The central defender has made a troublesome start at Craven Cottage but came off the bench in the 1-4 defeat to Newcastle making what has been described as a reasonable display.

Prio to that he had been involved only against Arsenal and the defeat of Nottingham Forest at PL level.
