When considering that this is his first season in English football, Issa Diop has performed very well for West Ham United in the opening months of the 2018-19 campaign.
Diop missed West Ham’s first two league games of the season, but has played in all 10 top-flight fixtures since, and was labelled a ‘monster’ by Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho for his performance against the Red Devils earlier this season.
Diop did cost £22m from Toulouse during the summer, but is just 21 years of age, and he should be pleased with his early-season form.
That does not seem to be the case, however, with the Frenchman insisting – in quotes carried by West Ham’s official website – that he needs to improve having ‘not played well’ since arriving at the London Stadium.
Whether the central defender actually believes that he has been under-par is another matter entirely, but those were his words.

As expected, the quotes brought a response from the West Ham fans, with the majority hailing the summer arrival for his desire to improve.
