Graham Potter says Lucas Paqueta tears down to frustration at West Ham display

  • Lucas Paqueta, a 27-year-old Brazilian midfielder for West Ham, broke down in tears after receiving a yellow card in Sunday's 1-1 Premier League draw against Tottenham at the London Stadium.
  • Paqueta is currently undergoing a Football Association hearing regarding accusations that he intentionally incurred four yellow cards in top-flight league games to influence betting activities, with the complex case having been paused since March and not expected to conclude before June at the earliest.
  • During the match, referee Michael Oliver warned Paqueta about his conduct after a foul on Mikey Moore that stopped a Tottenham counterattack, and teammates including captain Jarrod Bowen tried to console him as he appeared visibly upset wiping tears away.
  • West Ham manager Graham Potter acknowledged Paqueta’s visible frustration amid challenging circumstances, highlighting that the midfielder is fully committed and eager for improvements, while expressing his strong support and affection for him despite the difficulties.
  • Paqueta remains uncertain about his career pending the FA's decision, which could include a lifetime ban if guilty, while he denies all charges and has criticized misleading press leaks affecting his right to a fair hearing.
