Nuno Espirito Santo is set to take place in charge of his first home West Ham fixture on Monday, the 20th October, in what is set to be a boycott against Brentford. This inevitable boycott has been suspected to happen for a very long time, and it’s rather unfortunate timing for Nuno, seeing as he needs all the support that he can currently get.

However, once he was asked about the boycott, he said: "I hope all our fans could join us and help us facing Brentford.."

"We as a group we as a squad and group we ignore try to ignore focus on the tasks..."

Over the last season, it's been discussed amongst Hammers fans which is more of an underlying issue, whether it is the defence that needs more work than the attack. Or is it Vice-Verca?

The Hammers have conceded over 16 goals in the space of just 7 matches, totalling an average of 2.28 goals per game. To compare it to Sheffield United, who currently hold the worst record with 104 Goals conceded in a Premier League season, they averaged 2.73 goals per game.
