West Ham United's 15 million summer signing Mads Hermansen is facing increased scrutiny just months into his Premier League career, with Denmark manager Brian Riemer openly expressing concern about the goalkeeper's situation What was expected to be a major step forward for the 25-year-old has instead turned into a period of uncertainty, as Hermansen struggles to secure playing time under new Hammers boss Nuno Espirito Santo. Hermansen endured a difficult introduction to Premier League football after arriving from Leicester City.

Despair and rancour stalks the concrete corridors of the place that still feels nothing like home for West Ham. Though hope is not yet extinguished. A second home win in succession for Nuno Espirito Santo's team, the key goal scored by old faithful Tomas Soucek. The defeat of a fellow relegation contender in Burnley may prove vital in the fight against the London Stadium staging Championship football next season.

Emanuel Dennis has been linked with a move to West Ham United in recent weeks. However, a report from Daily Mail claims that Nuno Espirito Santo has decided against signing the 27-year-old attacker who is currently a free agent. The player terminated his contract with Nottingham Forest during the summer transfer window. However, he has not been able to find a club yet.

There is potential for a loan move away. West Ham do need 18 or 20 players in their squad, and he is still young. He is a good player, and I'm sure he'll play in all the cup games, but I'm not sure right now if he's at the level that Diouf is. Nuno would like to send him out on loan; it'll be good for his career to play in the Championship. Hopefully, he'll do very well.

With the WSL expanding to 14 teams in 2026-27, the bottom side will play the third-placed finisher in WSL2 for a top-flight spot next year. But that will be of little comfort for two teams who, despite their status and history, look ill-equipped for this campaign. While their records are similarly unimpressive, the reasons for their struggles differ. Two-time top-flight champions Liverpool's problems lie primarily in attack, while West Ham have defensive woes too.

Declan Rice scored against his former club and Bukayo Saka converted from the penalty spot as Arsenal comfortably dispatched West Ham to go top of the Premier League table prior to Liverpool's match later on Saturday. It wasn't all smooth sailing for the home side, however, with captain Martin Ødegaard forced off with an injury in the first-half for the third time this season.

West Ham United are looking to improve the attacking unit with the signing of Baris Alper Yilmaz. The 25-year-old has been linked with a move away from Galatasaray and it will be interesting to see if the London club can get the deal done. They have been told to pay 50 million for the player (h/t SportWitness). It will be interesting to see if they are willing to pay that kind of money for him.
