Romain Esse

Esse (coach's decision) wasn't included in the match squad for Saturday's clash against West Ham United after a poor performance in the Carabao Cup game, coach Oliver Glasner told the media, according to News Shopper. "Let's say it was the last drop in the full glass. There were going on, I don't want to talk about the details because he deserves that they remain confidential. I wasn't pleased with his performance, but I will always start with what I did wrong to put him in this situation. It's easy to blame him for everything, but we all play our part for things to be where they are now. We have to find a solution together so he can help the team win games and score goals."

Esse scored and assisted in the back half of the season after being signed in the January transfer window.

Esse assisted once to go with zero corners and two chances created in Tuesday's 4-2 victory against Wolverhampton.

Esse (illness) is on the bench for Wednesday's match against Newcastle.
