Welcome to Palace
Take care of Cheikhou, he'll give you everything and make you smile. Thanks for everything Kouyate!
Don't deserve him. You better not harm a hair on Kouyate's head. I swear if you drag him into a relegation fight, we're buying him back- salty west ham fan
Such a great guy. Good luck Cheik
Big team next Season Kouyaté Meyer!
All the best chiek.. Thanks for the years you gave us..
Good luck Kouyaté COYI
He's a good player and I hope he does well there.
It’s a long long day 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
We will miss Cheik. My favorite player back in the day. If Palace can rejuvenate him, he will be a class signing.
Good engine, limited talent.
kouyate why did yu leave
kouyate why did yu leave
He’s a good guy but his last 2 seasons were shocking
Congratulations sheikh wish you good luck in your new team another challenge keep moving god bless you
Captain Kouyate keep up brother, we're proud of you !!!
Welcome cheikhou africa for live💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿☝🏿☝🏿
wellkom
As a West Ham fan, lets be real. I miss him as a character more than a player. Great guy, good banter. On the pitch he offers power, and explosive pace. He's a bit lazy tho. Good luck Cheik. 😉
Good luck Cheikhou, you’ll be missed. Loved you at West Ham mate. You’ve joined a good team . 👏
Amazing player on his day. Though like any player that isn't £100m he has downsides. Kouyate's is bad marking and inability to sense danger. But I'm pretty sure he neglected those roles on purpose because he wants to be an attacking player. Guy thinks he's the next Yaya Toure XD but I do wish him all the best. If he decides to prove his doubters wrong then CPFC have made a steal.
likeable guy, if he can recapture his form when he joined west ham for the 1st 2 season you have a steal, word of warning he can become lazy and doesn't track back plenty of evidence on you tube clips
Good kouyate we will miss you
we fan ck8
