GAME LOG

Sent home from Czech national team Coufal was forced to depart from the Czech national team for "violating team rules" per SPORTBible.
Impact Coufal issued an apology on his social media after his off the field actions that resulted in his dismissal from national team duties with the Czech Republic. There is no discipline issued from West Ham at the moment as he is expected to be available for Saturday's match versus Burnley. Coufal started all 12 games with the team this season, recording four assists while averaging about 2.7 crosses and 2.5 tackles per contest.
NOVEMBER 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Maintains starting role in defense Coufal has appeared in all 12 of West Ham's matches in the Premier League this season, registering 33 crosses (nine accurate), 31 tackles (22 won), 30 clearances and 14 crosses.
Impact Coufal has been a regular starter for West Ham this season, marking his third straight year in that role, except this time, he has adopted a role as a right-back instead of his normal midfield position. He has done well in that role so far, averaging one chance created and three crosses in the attack, along with 2.5 tackles and 1.5 clearances in the defense. The defender should remain in this role, discounting any injuries, as he has started in all but two matches this season for West Ham, only missing two contests in the UEL.
NOVEMBER 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Starting against Everton Coufal is fit and in the starting XI for Sunday's match against Everton.
Impact Coufal returns after sitting out Thursday's Europa League match against Olympiacos with a slight muscle strain. The fullback is ready for Sunday's match against Everton as he'll make his 10th consecutive start in the Premier League.
OCTOBER 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Absence likely precautionary Coufal (strain) didn't play during Thursday's clash with Olympiacos but is expected to go for Sunday's clash with Everton.
Impact Coufal was feeling "a bit tight" Thursday so he wasn't risked, but there were no further concerns mentioned ahead of Sunday's match. With that in mind Coufal should be good to go for Sunday, likely putting him straight back in the starting XI ahead of Thilo Kehrer at right-back.
OCTOBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Doesn't travel to Greece Coufal (undisclosed) is out for Thursday's clash with Olympiacos via injury, according to manager David Moyes.
Impact Coufal played the full 90 during Sunday's 4-1 loss to Aston Villa so it's not clear what issue is bothering the right-back but it's a major loss for the team. Coufal was reportedly feeling "a bit tight" but that leaves plenty of room for interpretation putting his availability in the Premier League for Sunday's match against Everton in doubt.

Vladimir Coufal: West Ham's unlikely creative force The Czech Republic defender lost his place in David Moyes' starting XI - he's now in the form of his career with attacking output to match
OCTOBER 19, 2023 • THEATHLETIC.COM
Logs another assist versus Newcastle Coufal delivered an assist, sent in three inaccurate crosses, made two tackles (both won) and suffered two fouls during Sunday's 2-2 draw against Newcastle.
Impact Coufal didn't have an amazing performance here but still found his way to extend his incredible streak to four consecutive matches with an assist as he set up Mohammed Kudus' equalizer in the 89th minute. A starter in each league match for the Hammers this season, Coufal is on pace to have the best numbers of his career this season.
OCTOBER 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Assists in third straight match Coufal assisted once to go with three crosses (two accurate) and four chances created in Saturday's 2-0 win versus Sheffield United.
Impact Coufal recorded his third assist of the season, each coming in the last three games. His assist occurred as he delivered a ball into the box in the 24th minute, which Jarrod Bowen would go on to finish. The right-back set a new season-high with four chances created.
SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Assists again Coufal assisted once to go with five crosses (one accurate) and two chances created in Sunday's 3-1 loss versus Liverpool.
Impact Coufal provided an assist for a second Premier League match in a row, setting up Jarrod Bowen for the equalizer. The comeback couldn't be completed in the second half but Coufal did well throughout the match creating a season-high two chances and sending in five crosses from his role at right-back.
SEPTEMBER 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Provides assist in defeat Coufal assisted once to go with one cross (one accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-1 loss versus Manchester City.
Impact Coufal provided his first assist of the season by delivering a cross that located James Ward-Prowse in the box, allowing him to score with a header. Furthermore, the right-back achieved four tackles for the second consecutive contest.
SEPTEMBER 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Starting as right-back Coufal (undisclosed) is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against Manchester City.
Impact Coufal picked up a knock while playing for the Czech Republic during the international break, but it wasn't anything serious, so his presence in the starting lineup isn't surprising. He's expected to embrace a more defensive role this time around since he'll be dealing with City's powerful attack right from the start of the match.
SEPTEMBER 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Expected to return Coufal (knock) is expected to return for Saturday's clash with Manchester City, according to manager David Moyes."We're hoping that we have everybody fit and available"
Impact Coufal suffered the knock while away with Czechia for international duty. The wing-back is expected to return for what is one of the toughest matches on the calendar. Coufal started all four matches before the international break and has played every single minute in the Premier League.
SEPTEMBER 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Picks up knock with Czechia Coufal suffered a knock in training with the Czech Republic and will not take part in Tuesday's match against Albania.
Impact This doesn't sound like a major injury for Coufal, but it's worth monitoring in the next few days, as West Ham are back in action Saturday against Manchester City. If Coufal isn't ready for that match, Ben Johnson and Thilo Kehrer are most likely to enter the starting XI at right-back.
SEPTEMBER 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Regular starter again Coufal has contributed eight crosses, three chances created, ten tackles (six won) and 14 clearances through four games this season.
Impact Coufal has played well on both sides of the ball this season, contributing three chances created and eight crosses (two accurate) in the attack, along with ten tackles (six won), five interceptions and 14 clearances in the defense. He looks to be a normal starter once again for West ham after starting all four of their matches this season.
SEPTEMBER 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Creates three chances in EPL finale Coufal made three clearances, created three chances and won three of five tackles in the 2-1 defeat against Leicester City.
Impact Coufal kept two clean sheets and recorded an assist in 27 Premier League appearances (24 starts) at right-back this season, a decrease from his four assists in 2021/22 but he did slightly increase his chances created output (26 in this campaign vs. 21 in the last). The 30-year-old also helped West Ham win its first piece of silverware since 1980 with Wednesday's triumph over Fiorentina in the Europa Conference League Final.
JUNE 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Goes unused on bench Coufal (hamstring) went unused on the bench during Thursday's 1-0 Conference League win over AZ Alkmaar.
Impact Coufal was able to travel and was listed on the bench two good signs that he is ready to return from a hamstring issue that sidelined him for a pair of matches. The right-back wasn't given any time off the bench, giving some doubt about the type of role he's ready for heading into a Sunday Premier League clash with Leeds.
MAY 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Traveling for UECL match Coufal (hamstring) is traveling with the team for Thursday's Europa Conference League clash against AZ Alkmaar, according to West Ham manager David Moyes on Wednesday.
Impact Coufal has missed his side's last three games in all competitions since suffering a hamstring injury against Manchester City in early May, including the first leg of this UECL semifinal against AZ. But Moyes said that Coufal is "doing well" and has a "good chance" to play on Thursday, even if Thilo Kehrer is still the more likely option to start at right-back for now.
MAY 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Begins light running Coufal (hamstring) has begun light jogging in his recovery, according to manager David Moyes. "He is starting to do some light jogging. He has got a slight hamstring tweak but he i...
Impact Coufal probably has another week to go in recovery, at minimum, so his best chance for a return will be the final league match of the season. If all goes well, he'll get minutes in that game or even if West Ham advance to the final of the Europa Conference League. Thilo Kehrer has started at right-back the last couple matches in Coufal's place.
MAY 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Hamstring injury confirmed Coufal suffered a hamstring injury during Wednesday's match against Manchester, "He felt his hamstring, so we're not sure. We'll get him scanned in the morning, we'll see how he is...
Impact Coufal will miss at least one match in what appears to be a hamstring strain, however further tests are to be administered to find out the severity of the injury. He will likely not be available for Saturday's match, leaving Thilo Kehrer with the opportunity to start at right back against Manchester United.
MAY 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Comes off injured Coufal was brought off with an injury during the second half of Wednesday's clash with Manchester City.
Impact Coufal picked up an injury in the second half and had to be replaced by Ben Johnson. Coufal has been the normal starter when fit and available and would figure to take the starting role back as soon as possible. If Coufal is ruled out for any period of time it would be Johnson and Thilo Kehrer competing for starts on the right side of the defense. Coufal's first chance to return is a Sunday clash with Manchester United.
MAY 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Five crosses in defeat Coufal registered five crosses (zero accurate) and one tackle in Wednesday's 2-1 loss against Liverpool.
Impact Coufal peppered the box with crosses, trying to come back in what was a jammy loss. The wing-back sits on just a single assist through 23 appearances, far and away his worst return through his previous three seasons in London. Coufal has also seen fewer chances to send crosses in, with just seven crosses in his last three matches.
APRIL 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Delivers first assist of season Coufal assisted once to go with one cross (one accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 4-0 victory versus AFC Bournemouth.
Impact Coufal had a great game on Saturday and was the bedrock of West Ham's defense. The Czech showed his value in contributing to attacks by assisting Lucas Paqueta, scorer of the Hammers second goal. From 22 appearances (19 starts) this was the defender's first assist and he has delivered two clean sheets.
APRIL 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Busy during break Coufal (heel) started both international matches with Czech Republic, going the full 90 during Monday's goalless draw.
Impact Coufal was a major part of the team throughout each of the international matches. The wing-back appeared to have recovered from the heel issues that had been plaguing him, and should be fully fit and available for an April 2 clash with Southampton.
MARCH 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Hopeful to return soon Coufal (heel) is hopeful to return to the starting XI soon, he recently told WHUFC.com.
Impact Coufal is dealing with a bit of plantar fasciitis, which can either last three-plus months or a couple weeks. This one seems will keep him out through the international break and at that point, it will be about a month of matches that he'd have missed. The hope is that he can return in April, but nothing is guaranteed with this injury and a combination of Ben Johnson and Thilo Kehrer are expected to keep starting at right-back.
MARCH 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Out Sunday Coufal (heel) will not make the trip to Aston Villa on Sunday, according to manager David Moyes. "Vladimir Coufal has a plantar fascia issue in his heel and time will help it, but...
Impact Coufal has developed further issues in his heel and will miss his second match in a row. The timeline of his recovery is still not determined, but Ben Johnson will probably start as right back until Coufal is fully healed
