Marouane Chamakh’s career trajectory has seen a decline since his successful stint at Bordeaux, especially during his time at Crystal Palace. However, instead of focusing on regaining his form, Chamakh resorted to simulation during a match against Swansea, along with his teammate Jérôme Thomas.
Crystal Palace manager Tony Pulis expressed his disappointment with his players’ actions, labeling simulation as unacceptable behavior. Pulis emphasized that there would be consequences for their actions, declaring, “They will pay for that. It’s a disease. We have to show them that this is not acceptable! I won’t let this go.” Determined to address the issue, Pulis ordered Chamakh and Thomas to compensate their club for their behavior.
