Jarrod Bowen - Takes three shots against Brighton Bowen took three shots and created a chance in Sunday's 0-0 draw against Brighton. He also made a block and won one of three tackles in the match.

Impact Bowen had his best game of the season so far on Sunday but West Ham have still not been able to score at all through three games.

Michail Antonio - Has quiet game in loss Antonio created a chance in Sunday's 2-0 defeat against Brighton.

Impact Antonio was almost anonymous on Sunday as West Ham are still looking for their first goal of the season. It might not be long before Gianluca Scamacca gets a chance to start in place of Antonio up front.

Lukasz Fabianski - Concedes two goals against Brighton Fabianski made zero saves and conceded two goals in Sunday's 2-0 defeat against Brighton.

Impact Fabianski was beaten by an Alexis Mac Allister penalty and a strike from Leandro Trossard on Sunday, but it is West Ham's struggles at the other end of the pitch that will make the headlines as they have yet to score this season. Next weekend Fabianski will face Aston Villa, which have netted three times in as many Premier League matches so far.

Vladimir Coufal - Departs after collision Coufal was replaced by Ben Johnson after 70 minutes of Sunday's 2-0 loss to Brighton following a collision.

Impact Coufal needed help from the training staff to get off the pitch and likely suffered a concussion. With Johnson taking his place, if Coufal remains out for any matches there will be further depth issues as there isn't a backup right-back in the side even if Johnson is capable of playing in that spot.

Thilo Kehrer - In debut lineup Kehrer is listed in the starting lineup ahead of Sunday's match against Brighton.

Impact Kehrer takes over as the third center-back as Craig Dawson (thigh) is still hurt and Ben Johnson isn't good enough to maintain his spot just yet. Alongside Kurt Zouma, Kehrer could bring a further level of composure to the Hammers back line.

Craig Dawson - Out against Brighton Dawson (thigh) will miss Sunday's match against Brighton.

Impact Dawson had some consideration to play in this game but based on manager David Moyes's statement, the chances were not the highest. Thilo Kehrer has been handed his Hammers debut with Ben Johnson making way as Dawson continues to miss matches.

Craig Dawson - Not far from return Dawson (thigh) is "not too far away now" ahead of Sunday's match against Brighton, according to manager David Moyes.

Impact This isn't much of an update on Dawson, but it doesn't appear like he'll be ready to play Sunday. Ben Johnson continues to feature at center-back, though new signing Thilo Kehrer could soon be in the starting XI, depending on his fitness level ahead of Sunday's match.

Ben Johnson - Two clearances in loss Johnson made two clearances and one interception during Sunday's 1-0 loss to Nottingham Forest.

Impact Johnson has found consistent playing time to start the 2022/23 campaign but it's been at center-back, not right-back. While it's a move that is seeing Johnson on the pitch more often, and for a full 90 in each of the opening two matches, it's not one that helps his offensive upside. Barring an injury to Vladimir Coufal it seems that Johnson is set to stay in a more central position in the West Ham defense.

Angelo Ogbonna - Starting Thursday Ogbonna (knee) started and went 67 minutes against Viborg in Thursday's UEFA Conference League matchup.

Impact After missing the first two Premier League contests due to a torn ACL, Ogbonna will get back on the pitch for the first time since Nov. 7, 2021. Prior to getting hurt last season, the central defender had started 11 of the club's 15 contests. It's unclear what his role will be this season following the signings of Nayef Aguerd and Thilo Kehrer. Given his lack of Premier League fitness, he figures to be a bench option in the near future, competing heavily in European matches.

Craig Dawson - Still not training Dawson (thigh) still isn't training ahead of Thursday's UECL match, according to assistant manager Billy McKinlay. "He's probably a little bit [sidelined] short-term."

Impact This all but points to Dawson not being ready Sunday unless he can train later in the week. He's already been out multiple weeks and will need time on the pitch before he's given a start despite "doing quite well" a week ago. Ben Johnson could continue at center-back or new signing Thilo Kehrer could be an option if deemed ready.

Thilo Kehrer - Completes West Ham move Kehrer has transferred to West Ham and signed a four-year deal away from PSG.

Impact Kehrer goes from one crowded back line to another after starting 16 league matches each of the last two seasons at PSG. He figures to immediately fight for starts at center-back where Ben Johnson has been deployed the first two matches and also eventually contend for minutes at right-back where he played at times for PSG. Once Nayef Aguerd returns from injury, the Hammers will have a deep back line.

Lukasz Fabianski - Five saves in loss Fabianski made five saves in Sunday's 1-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest.

Impact Fabianski made five saves and still came away with a loss Sunday. It was a disappointing performance yet again from West Ham who have yet to give Fabianski a single goal in the opening two matches of the season. The keeper made 114 saves last time out and has the potential to sit near the top of the Premier League in saves once more in 2022/23.
