Garth Crooks raves about West Ham defender Issa Diop
West Ham defender Issa Diop produced an assured display at the back for his side on Sunday and he has made into Garth Crooks’ team of the week.
The Hammers battled out a 0-0 draw against Chelsea and Diop was excellent in dealing with the likes of Hazard and Giroud.
BBC pundit Garth Crooks has heaped praise on the young defender for his performance.
He said: “He was outstanding against Everton last week and was unlucky not to make my TOTW then. However, another outstanding performance by Issa Diop and a clean sheet – against Chelsea of all teams, having been battered in the opening exchanges – has not gone unnoticed.”
