ANALYTICAL CASE: LUCAS PAQUETA'S POOR FORM AGAINST VILLA PROVES TRANSFER NECESSITY
Lucas Paqueta's inconsistent play and mental distress make his sale essential for West Ham. Selling him in January could fund Nuno Espirito Santo's necessary squad overhaul.
West Ham and Nuno Espirito Santo could gain by letting Lucas Paqueta go in January.
Ahead of the January transfer window, there's expected to be interest in Paqueta. He's almost left a few times already.
Paqueta has said he’s missed chances to leave West Ham before. His poor play shows he regrets staying.
West Ham lost to Aston Villa, but the loss could have been avoided if the Brazilian had played better.
Stats from the game show how much his poor performance hurt West Ham's chances of winning.
Lucas Paqueta misplaced more passes than anyone else against Aston Villa. He has spoken about his mental issues at West Ham, especially with the betting allegations.
His recent red card against Liverpool added to the problem, and his latest game against Villa was not good.
West Ham was in the lead twice against Villa, but Villa had an advantage because of Paqueta’s bad play in midfield and attack.
He didn't help West Ham much on offence or defence, and Nuno is probably confused by the interest in him.
It’s best for everyone if he leaves, and not just because of his performance.
Selling Paqueta would give West Ham money to reinvest. The team needs to stay in the Premier League, and Nuno will need help in January.
Some might think Paqueta's leaving is bad. But it might be one of the better things that could happen.
He has skill sometimes, but he’s too risky to depend on when trying to avoid being relegated.
West Ham could get a lot of money for Paqueta, which they could use to fund Nuno’s team changes.
David Sullivan should think about any offer for the 28-year-old, since his value will likely go down after this season.
CONSISTENT CALLS: DANIEL FARKE CALLS OUT VAR AFTER CONTROVERSIAL BRENTFORD PENALTY
Daniel Farke expressed frustration with VAR and referee consistency despite Leeds' 1-1 draw at Brentford, rescued by a brilliant Dominic Calvert-Lewin header.
Here’s what Daniel Farke had to say about the 1-1 draw between Leeds United and Brentford.
Leeds has made it clear that they're not giving up on staying in the Premier League. In the last two weeks, they had a tough 3-2 loss to Man City, a solid 3-1 victory over Chelsea, and a 3-3 draw with Liverpool at Elland Road.
Against Brentford, at the Gtech Community Stadium, Leeds had to rally after Jordan Henderson scored for the home side. Dominic Calvert-Lewin came through late in the game, giving the team hope that they could avoid relegation.
I'll be honest, we had more shots and better chances and should have scored more. Getting a point away against Brentford, who are tough at home, is good. We bounced back. So, yeah, a point at Brentford is alright.
Some of the referee's calls? I didn't get them. It felt like we could have gotten more from the game. The calls need to be consistent. The VAR should have stepped in on the offside for the penalty.
I don't think things were fair today, and it made things harder for us.
The way we finished the second half was good, not so much the first. We kept a clean sheet in the first half, but I did not like how we played. The second half was a big improvement.
We were unlucky, but I still think we played better in the second half. Coming back was brilliant.
“Dominic is a top striker—that's clear. His record speaks for itself. He is an amazing person and a hard worker. He's one of the best English strikers in the Premier League, and we're lucky to have him.
MIDFIELD BATTLE: CONOR GALLAGHER'S PREMIER LEAGUE RETURN TRIGGERS PALACE VS MAN UTD WAR
Former club CEO Keith Wyness believes Crystal Palace is the likeliest destination for Conor Gallagher if the midfielder leaves Atlético Madrid, challenging Man Utd.
Crystal Palace might try to grab Conor Gallagher from under Manchester United's noses if he decides to return to the Premier League.
That’s according to Keith Wyness, who used to be the main man at Everton, Aston Villa, and Aberdeen. Speaking with Football Insider, he mentioned that Atletico Madrid's Gallagher would be a good addition to Crystal Palace.
Man United also wants Gallagher, and he might be available for about £26 million in January.
Gallagher was with Crystal Palace on loan from Chelsea back in 2021-22 and was named the club’s best player that season.
Wyness thinks any move for Gallagher is more likely to happen in the summer instead of January.
Talking on Football Insider’s podcast, Wyness said Crystal Palace might need to add some new players to their team next summer.
He told Football Insider, “I wouldn’t be shocked if Gallagher went back to Palace. He was well-liked there and had a great time on loan.
“Palace might need to add to their squad if they end up losing a couple of players, and Gallagher would be a good fit for them. That’s why I think he might go there.
“But I still think it’ll wait until the summer. He’ll likely finish the season with Atletico and see what happens afterwards. He has a big season ahead of him in Spain, where they're doing well, though it is hard to win that league.
“If they can get past Real Madrid and Barcelona, anything is possible, and I know he could become a star. The fans like him, but if he comes back to England, I’m betting on Palace.”
If Crystal Palace goes after Gallagher next summer, it might be because Adam Wharton is leaving.
Crystal Palace values Wharton at £100m, and Man United is interested in the 21-year-old.
Man United wants a new midfielder next summer but may look for cheaper options.
