Emerson Palmieri says West Ham must deal with Fiorentina gamesmanship

Emerson Palmieri has said that West Ham must be prepared for Fiorentina’s attempts to frustrate them with spoiling tactics during the Europa Conference League final.

Vincenzo Italiano, the Fiorentina manager, has admitted he will tell his players to stop David Moyes’s side from threatening on the counterattack by using tactical fouls during the game in Prague on Wednesday night.

Moyes responded by saying he expects the Spanish referee, Carlos del Cerro Grande, in charge of his first European final, to deal with any foul play.

It could be a feisty affair and Emerson believes West Ham, who often look to sit back and attack on the break, will need their wits about them to win their first major trophy in 43 years.
