West Ham goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski plays his final game for the club this afternoon, and he deserves to start the match.
West Ham travel to Portman Road on the final day of the season with nothing to play for, and Fabianski deserves to say a final goodbye.
Unlike Vladimir Coufal and Aaron Cresswell, Lukasz Fabianski didn’t really get to say his final goodbyes on Sunday because he didn’t get on the pitch,
In an interview after the match, the 40-year-old made it clear he was upset that he didn’t start the game or even get on the pitch.
I understand Graham Potter wants to play what he believes his best team, but as we saw on Sunday, is Areola even that much better? If at all.
The 32-year-old Frenchman practically gave Nottingham Forest their first goal on Sunday. His poor pass fell straight to Morgan Gibbs-White who capitalised. And who knows, if he didn’t do that, we could’ve gone on and won the game.
While that’s harsh on Areola, he has made some crucial saves this season and he did last weekend. However, so has Fabianski and I just think he deserves to say a real goodbye in a game that really doesn’t mean much.
