Eagle-eyed fans praise Lucas Paqueta’s ‘top s***housery’ as they spot how he put off Arsenal star Saka for penalty miss
LUCAS PAQUETA has been praised for his “top s***housery” against Arsenal.
Eagle-eyed fans have spotted that the West Ham star managed to put off Bukayo Saka as he stepped up to take a penalty.
Fans noticed it after watching West Ham’s Behind-The-Scenes video of the match on YouTube.
Arsenal had been awarded a spot kick following Michail Antonio‘s handball.
If the Gunners had scored it would have put them in complete control in the Premier League clash at the London Stadium.
Despite having led 2-0 after ten minutes, the Hammers had got back into the game through Said Benrahma’s penalty before half time.
But as Saka stepped up to take his effort, fans have spotted that Paqueta shouted at the England international.
And it seems the Brazilian’s intervention was enough to put Saka off as he sent his effort wide of the post.
One happy West Ham fan tweeted: “Top s***housery from Paqueta
A second wrote: “Paqueta putting off Saka as he steps up .”

A third commented: “The dark arts of football is great West ham need to do this a lot more.”
A fourth said: “Love it.”
While a fifth added: “I love this guy.”
Arsenal fans will not be impressed with Paqueta however as they believed that he had dived to win West Ham’s penalty in the first half.
And to make matters worse, Jarrod Bowen fired in an equaliser two minutes after Saka’s miss.
The game ended 2-2, which boosted the Hammer’s survival chances while denting Arsenal’s title hopes.
