West Ham's four points from their opening seven games is their joint-worst return at this stage of a Premier League campaign, also having four in 2016-17 and 2022-23. West Ham have faced more shots on target than any other side in the Premier League this season (34, including five against Arsenal).
West Ham boss Nuno Espírito Santo, speaking to BBC Match of the Day after their defeat to Arsenal: "We've had two tough games away from home against very good teams.
"Now is the moment to analyse but with all the changes that has been happening I feel the players are responding and trying and that pleases me the most.
"The international break will be important for all of us especially for the players to be calm, there's been many changes and many noises around us. This is our priority - that we know each other as a group because it is basically our unity and fight for each other [that we need]."
