Shown red card for dissent Paqueta was shown two yellow cards and sent off in Sunday's 2-0 loss to Liverpool.

Impact Paqueta received one of the more avoidable red cards in some time Sunday, with the attacker receiving two yellow cards in a matter of seconds to earn a red card for dissent. This will leave the midfielder banned for their match against Manchester United on Thursday, returning to face Brighton on Dec. 7. That said, this will force a change, with Tomas Soucek, James Ward-Prowse or a returning Crysencio Summerville (undisclosed) as possible replacements while out.

Impact Paqueta has served his suspension due to yellow cards accumulation in the Premier League and is set to return in the next contest. The midfielder is an undisputed starter for West Ham United in the midfield and should claim back that role on Sunday against Liverpool.

Picks up suspension Paqueta is suspended for one match due to yellow card accumulation.

Impact Paqueta has suffered his fifth yellow card of the season and will hit the sidelines for a match, picking up a one-game ban due to his cautions. This will ban him from their next match on Nov. 22 against Bournemouth, returning to face Liverpool on Nov. 30. He is a starter, so this will force a change while he is out, with Soungoutou Magassa or Tomas Soucek as possible replacements.

Scores goal from spot Paqueta scored one goal to go with three shots (two on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and two chances created in Sunday's 3-0 victory against Nottingham Forest.

Impact Paqueta had West Ham's best first-half chance, a strike tipped over by Matz Sels, then calmly slotted a late penalty kick to secure the win for the Hammers. The spot kick followed Crysencio Summerville being tripped after a driving run. Paqueta also created two chances in open play and was central to the visitors' late surge, contributing in defense with two tackles, three clearances and two blocks. The Brazilian's celebration after his goal suggests he will remain at West Ham for the 2025/26 season.

Scores goal Paqueta scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal) and one chance created in Friday's 5-1 defeat versus Chelsea.

Impact For the 2025-26 Premier League, West Ham maintained Paqueta. At least temporarily, he rewarded the Hammers. Fewer than seven minutes into the game, Paqueta scored outside Chelsea's penalty box, shortly before they lost their grip. In terms of goals, he is consistent, with each of West Ham's previous three seasons including his four scored. With his latest appearances including one goal, him surpassing the four-goal tally this season looks promising.

Down year Paqueta scored four times in 33 appearances (27 starts) in the Premier League.

Impact Paqueta netted four goals, a massive downturn after producing 10 goal contributions last time out. The attacking midfielder was disappointing throughout the season and failed to really get anything done. It was an awful campaign also marred by off-the-pitch issues. Paqueta's future is uncertain but if he remains at West Ham he should be a consistent starter with some upside.

Two accurate crosses Saturday Paqueta generated one shot (zero on goal), two crosses (two accurate) and four chances created in Saturday's 1-1 draw versus Southampton.

Impact Paqueta has had a quiet April, considering his best performance of the season saw him create four chances, two of them accurate crosses. He has struggled since January, failing to log a goal or an assist despite continued opportunities. Ideally for Paqueta, before or during May, Paqueta can get back in form to help West Ham escape the area just above the Premier League's relegation zone.

Impact Paqueta is progressing but still appears to be a bit away from his return, as he will not be an option Thursday and was deemed to need more time until fit. It is uncertain if he will be fit to face Newcastle on March 10, with that being his next chance to return. He is a critical part of the team and is a regular starter when fit, so they will hope he is available soon.
