He will go through the 10-day concussion protocol put forward by the league, giving him a chance to return against Aston Villa on Jan. 10.

Stretchered off pitch Fabianski was forced off in the 36th minute of Thursday's match against Southampton due to an apparent head injury.

Impact Fabianski was the recipient of a scary scene Thursday, as the goalie was stretchered off the field following a collision to the head that occurred during a corner kick, leaving the shot-stopper knocked out. He would then be taken off as a concussion substitute, implying he will miss at least a week or two due to concussion protocol, hoping no other issues arise during testing. This will force a change, with Alphonse Areola taking his spot while out.

Faces attacking onslaught Fabianski recorded three saves and allowed three goals in Tuesday's 3-1 defeat to Leicester City.

Impact Fabianski's defense did him no favors in West Ham United's 3-1 loss against Leicester City. Fabianski faced six shots on target (all from inside his own box), and his defense allowed Leicester to generate 2.97 expected goals on target. Fabianski was able to make three saves from inside his own box, but there was only so much the Polish keeper could do. It really is no wonder that both Fabianski and Alphonse Areola are both bottom of the league in save percentage, considering West Ham's defense has been extremely porous all season. Hopefully, Fabianski will have an easier time between the posts when West Ham host Wolverhampton Wanderers this Sunday.
