West Ham midfielder Mohammed Kudus’ poor run of form showed no signs of improvement over the weekend, as he delivered another underwhelming performance in the Hammers’ 1-0 loss to Brentford on Saturday, February 15, 2025.
Kudus’ last goal came in December 2024 during West Ham’s 1-1 draw against Brighton at the London Stadium, leaving his Premier League tally at just three goals in 20 appearances.
Since then, he has failed to contribute significantly to the team’s attack, going nine consecutive games without a goal or an assist.
Many had attributed his struggles to former manager Julen Lopetegui’s tactics, but despite a change in leadership, Kudus has yet to regain his form under new boss Graham Potter.
On Saturday, he endured a difficult outing, failing to make an impact in attack while also showing a lack of defensive effort.
West Ham’s defeat was a collective failure, but Kudus’ performance stood out as particularly disappointing.
The 24-year-old struggled to maintain possession, repeatedly giving the ball away, and offered little in terms of attacking threat.
Despite having 60 touches, he failed to create a single scoring opportunity, provide an assist, or make a key pass.
His crossing was also off the mark, with none of his six attempts finding a teammate. To make matters worse, he lost possession 16 times and failed to win a single aerial duel, making him the lowest-rated player of the match, according to the West Ham Zone official site.
For West Ham and Potter, the struggles continue. The Hammers have amassed just 27 points from 25 games, sitting 16th in the table.
With only one win in their last six matches—four losses and a draw—they find themselves in a precarious position.
