"Alphonse Areola has been in and out of the West Ham starting lineup in recent weeks, and his wife has now aimed a subtle dig at manager Nuno Espirito Santo. The French goalkeeper is undoubtedly the best keeper at the club right now, but he has been dropped for Mads Hermansen in some of the recent matches.

"According to Hammers News, Nuno wants a goalkeeper with better communication skills who can organise the defensive unit. He believes that a goalkeeper who can better organise the defence will help West Ham tighten up at the back. Areola has a shy demeanour; therefore, Nono has chosen to start Hermansen at times. It will be interesting to see if the French goalkeeper can cement his place in the starting lineup once again."
Alphonse Areola has alternated between starting and being benched for West Ham in recent weeks. Mads Hermansen has started some matches in his place. Manager Nuno Espirito Santo prefers a goalkeeper who can better communicate and organise the defensive unit. Areola is described as having a shy demeanour, which has influenced selection decisions. Areola won the Premier League Save of the Month for January, and his wife posted a social-media remark highlighting his achievement. Hermansen was signed as a prospective first-choice keeper but has not fully met expectations, leaving Areola needing stronger communication to regain consistency.
