News that Nayef Aguerd is again suffering from, injury is particularly bad news give Kurt Zouma’s injury position.

We understand that the big central defender is currently wearing a boot and as a result hugely unlikely to be available for the game against Spurs.

As a result the Hammers look set to field their most makeshift defence of the season so far  with Angelo Ogbonna the only recognised fit central defender.

It seems that he could well be joined by Kehrer at the heart of a back four or five with either Cresswell joining them and Coufal and Emerson at right and left back.

It’s a major blow of course as we prepare for a match against the old North London enemy.

Spurs were beaten 4-1 by Leicester City at the weekend and are now sitting in fifth place having lost three Premier League games from their last five games
