West Ham insider ExWHUemployee has shared some "unfortunate news" out of the club with Nuno Espírito Santo dealt another injury blow.
The Hammers had a rare afternoon of celebration last weekend as Nuno oversaw his first win since taking charge.

West Ham put top four-chasing Newcastle to the sword in a 3-1 victory which was also their first Premier League win at the London Stadium in 248 days.
Goals from Lucas Paqueta, Sven Botman (OG) and Tomas Soucek cancelled out Jacob Murphy's stunning early opener to gift the east Londoners an absolutely vital three points, with Nuno explaining his plan to make the London Stadium a fortress when asked about the fan protests after full-time.
"I think the fans saw something in the team today and this is what we want, this is how we should look at the situation," he said.
"How can we as a team, show to our fans that we want to fight, we want to change [the] situation.
"We want to make things tough for our opponents. We want to change our game, we want to improve our game. The fans [we] cannot thank them enough."
Nuno tinkered with his team once again at home to Newcastle, but unlike his questionable selections against the likes of Brentford and Leeds, his decisions paid dividends.
Jean-Clair Todibo put in what was one of his better West Ham performances in the left centre-back role, with highly-rated youngster Freddie Potts impressing after finally being given the chance by Nuno.

Despite reports suggesting that Nuno doesn't fancy Callum Wilson up front for West Ham, the Portuguese elected to start him against Eddie Howe's side and drop Paqueta back to his preferred midfield role.
The striker conundrum is one of West Ham's major dilemmas, but ExWHUemployee says Nuno could welcome back Fullkrug pretty soon.
Sharing an injury update, the insider claims that he is on track to return ahead of schedule, as is Konstantinos Mavropanos.
However, he also has some bad news.
West Ham dealt Lukasz Fabianski blow as Nuno takes action
Writing via his Patreon, Ex explains that Lukasz Fabianski has now suffered a back injury which required him to be carried off in training at Rush Green.

As a result, Nuno made the personal decision to recall young keeper Finn Herrick from his loan at Boreham Wood.
“The positive news is that both Dinos Mavropanos and Niclas Füllkrug are on track and even slightly ahead of schedule with both players in light training," Ex said.
“Although both are unlikely to be available for the Burnley fixture at the weekend, it’s felt that both should become available following the upcoming international break.
“The unfortunate news however centres around Lucasz Fabianski, who suffered a back spasm in training, with it understood that he had to be carried from the pitch.
“This has lead to the club recalling Finn Herrick from his loan spell at Boreham Wood, which understandably is a blow to the player, who was performing well for the National League side.
“We understand that Nuno decided to act following the injury to Fabianski, for Herrick to provide cover as the 3rd choice goalkeeper, after Areola and Hermansen.”
The Pole, who was released by West Ham only to be brought back in the summer, played 90 minutes for the club's Under-21s against MK Dons in the EFL Trophy back in September.
The 40-year-old has made 216 first-team appearances for West Ham and was a more-than capable back up to the likes of Areola and Hermansen, but following this injury, it is unclear what the future holds for Fabianski with his contract up at the end of 25/26.
