Mohammed Kudus - Assists at Everton Kudus assisted once to go with four shots (one on goal), six crosses (two accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 3-1 victory versus Everton.

Impact Kudus created Tomas Soucek's goal in the 91st minute with his third assist in the season. That's his second game in a row with an assist. The midfielder has a great offensive performance, leading West Ham in both shots and crosses during the match.

Impact Soucek scored in the 91st minute to give West Ham the late 2-1 lead with his eighth goal in the season. He also helped on defense with the second-most interceptions (three) and clearances (five) for his side. The midfielder did receive his fourth yellow card in the campaign, though.

James Ward Prowse - Assists in road win Ward-Prowse assisted once to go with three crosses (three accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 3-1 victory against Everton.

Impact Ward-Prowse created Kurt Zouma's equalizer in the 62nd minute with his 12th assist in the season. Most of them came in the first half of the campaign, though, since he assisted only twice in his last 17 starts. The midfielder also led West Ham in chances created during the match.

Kurt Zouma - Scores in road win Zouma scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) in Saturday's 3-1 win against Everton.

Impact Zouma scored the 1-1 equalizer in the 62nd minute with his second goal in the season. The centerback is not used to scoring, since he logged only two goals in 2022-23 as well. He also led West Ham in clearances as usual during the match.

Alphonse Areola - Saves PK in win Areola made nine saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 3-1 win versus Everton.

Impact Areola had a great outing to help West Ham win on the road, matching his second-most saves in the season. The goalkeeper also saved a PK just before halftime that would've open the score for Everton and could've change the game. He will look to keep the momentum against Burnley on Sunday, but first they will visit Freiburg on Thursday in Europa League play.

Maxwel Cornet - Out multiple weeks Cornet (hamstring) is set for a few weeks on the sideline, according to manager David Moyes."Maxwel Cornet pulled his hamstring a bit in training before the Brentford match. He mig...

Impact Cornet will miss a few weeks while he deals with a hamstring issue. The winger first missed out during the 4-2 win over Brentford last time out, so he may already be a week into the recovery process. Still with this timeline a return after the international break seems the most likely outcome for Cornet.

Konstantinos Mavropanos - Sees slight drop in time Mavropanos has only started once in the club's past five contests following a streak where he started in five consecutive matches.

Impact Mavropanos appeared to be seeing a slight rise of time after he strung together a couple of starts in a row, but he looks to have returned to his rotation role after only getting the start in their last match after three straight games on the bench. His recent rise in time was most likely due to Nayef Aguerd's service at AFCON, as Mavropanos' five-match starting streak came when his fellow center-back was absent from the team due to his international team duties. The defender will most likely still see some time in the starting XI here and there, as he did previously, but shouldn't be expected to get the nod more than two matches in a row after returning to his rotational role.

FEBRUARY 28 • ROTOWIRE

Tomas Soucek - Usual sight in starting XI Soucek remains in the starting role he has held over the past three seasons while with West Ham, having gotten the start in 23 of the club's 26 league matches this season.

Impact Soucek's role has not diminished one bit since joining West Ham, as he continues to be one of the club's top options within the midfield. He has seen a rise in his goal contributions this campaign, as he already has six in league play this season, topping his five from the previous season, although his last came a while ago, back on Dec. 28 against Arsenal. However, his efficiency on both sides of the ball remains the most vital point of his game, notching five goals on 10 shots and one assist on four chances created in the attack to go along with 26 interceptions, 32 tackles and 64 clearances in the defense.

Kalvin Phillips - No longer suspended Phillips is an option for Saturday's match against Everton following his suspension.

Impact Phillips is no longer banned, having served his one-match suspension against Brentford on Monday after receiving two yellow cards, which led to a red card in the Feb. 17 match against Nottingham Forrest. The midfielder has started twice and served off the bench twice in his four appearances since joining the club on loan and will now look to capture the start once again against Everton. However, following his brutal display in his last start, where he saw the red card, he will most likely be placed on the bench, needing to earn back his spot, especially with Lucas Paqueta returning to play.

FEBRUARY 27 • ROTOWIRE

Lucas Paqueta - Gets 76 minutes in win Paqueta had two shots, a chance created and three fouls drawn in Monday's 4-2 win against Brentford.

Impact Paqueta's return to the pitch meant a return to form for West Ham, as they looked like a different team. While Paqueta wasn't technically involved in any of the four goals, it's clear his presence boosts the confidence of teammates in addition to opening up shooting lanes not previously seen. That being the case, Paqueta is still just on two goals and five assists in 19 league starts, so while he's extremely important to the Hammers, it doesn't always show with goals and assists.

FEBRUARY 27 • ROTOWIRE

Vladimir Coufal - Breaks assist drought Monday Coufal assisted once to go with three crosses (three accurate) and three chances created in Monday's 4-2 victory over Brentford.

Impact Coufal set up Jarrod Bowen's goal in the seventh minute to take the 2-0 lead, his sixth assist of the season and his first since Dec. 3. After recording four assists in the first eight matches of the season, Coufal has slowed down quite a bit and now has just two in his last 16 matches. He also created three chances Monday, his most since Sept. 30, and set a new season high with three accurate crosses.

FEBRUARY 27 • ROTOWIRE

Mohammed Kudus - Assists in productive outing Kudus assisted once to go with six shots (one on goal), six crosses (two accurate) and two chances created in Monday's 4-2 win versus Brentford.

Impact Kudus put together one of his best performances of the season Monday, highlighted by his assist to Jarrod Bowen in the 63rd minute off a cross. It marked his second Premier League assist of the season to go with six goals. He also took a season-high six shots, created multiple chances for the fourth time this season and recorded six crosses for the third time in his last five appearances. He was subbed off in the 94th minute for Ben Johnson.

FEBRUARY 27 • ROTOWIRE

Jarrod Bowen - Bags hat trick Monday Bowen scored three goals to go with three shots (three on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one corner in Monday's 4-2 win versus Brentford.

Impact Bowen scored the first hat trick of his senior career Monday, and he did it on just three shots. He scored twice in the opening seven minutes of the match, assisted by Emerson and Vladimir Coufal respectively, and then completed the hat trick in the 63rd minute with a header off a Mohammed Kudus cross. This electric performance broke him out of a six-match streak without a goal contribution after he did not go more than one match without one during the first 18 matches of the season.

FEBRUARY 27 • ROTOWIRE

Alphonse Areola - Concedes twice in win Areola made five saves and allowed two goals in Monday's 4-2 win versus Brentford.

Impact Areola conceded two goals Monday, bringing him up to 10 in his last three starts. He made five saves for the third consecutive week as well, bringing him up to 94 in 23 starts. He faces a slightly easier matchup Saturday at Everton, a side which has scored 28 goals in 26 league matches this season.
