Issa Diop anticipates 'memorable' Wimbledon return with West Ham
Issa Diop is anticipating a memorable return to Kingsmeadow as West Ham gear up for a FA Cup fourth-round encounter against AFC Wimbledon.
Diop, who joined the Hammers from Toulouse last summer, scored his maiden goal for the London side in a second-round League Cup game against the same oppositions last August.
More important was the impact of the goal, coming three days after the young defender scored a record own goal on his Premier League debut to help Arsenal record a victory.
