James Ward-Prowse has been a part of numerous conversations throughout Graham Potter's stint as well as the very short current tenure under Nuno Espírito Santo.

The Portuguese manager stamped his foot on the floor and, as his first action of being a Hammers manager, he decided not to let Ward-Prowse travel with the team to the fixture against Everton and it seems that this will become a regular occurrence according to recent history.

Nuno did address this and vocalised that 'they spoke' and that 'he understood'.

Nuno’s track record with clubs managed truly suggests how much he loves this league; he claims it to be “the best in the world”, and it shows, especially seeing as West Ham would be the FOURTH Premier League club he’s represented.

His short and unforgotten time at Tottenham Hotspur was his least successful of them all, managing 16 matches before being sacked whilst Spurs sat in 9th place.

The Hammers kicked off the game without Ward-Prowse in the starting squad, who had been the first to suffer Nuno's ruthlessness, being dropped from the squad entirely and being replaced by the debut of Soungatou Magassa.
