West Ham United will consider caretaker manager if they sack David Moyes – ExWHUemployee
West Ham will consider internal and external options for a caretaker manager role if they opt to sack David Moyes this season, says ExWHUemployee.
Moyes is under huge pressure after a 5-1 defeat to Newcastle on Wednesday (5 April), with Jacob Steinberg reporting that his position is more vulnerable than ever.
However writing on his Patreon account (6 April), Ex believes the club are still planning for Moyes to be in the dugout for the weekend fixture against Fulham on Saturday (8 April) although their support for him has “dwindled significantly”.
“The general feeling today is that David Moyes will still be in charge for the Fulham game at least despite the result yesterday,” he wrote.
“The board obviously have massive concerns and their support for Moyes has dwindled significantly, so far as that alternatives have been considered and explored should they wish to remove him but for the “short term” they seem reluctant to make a change.
“What the definition of a ‘short term’ is, is open for interpretation but I would assume a bad defeat against Fulham could spell the end of his time.
“Should they remove Moyes, then a temporary caretaker model is likely to be considered until the end of the season with internal options being explored as well as external options.”
Get him gone
He has to go, and he has to go now.
Fulham are a team that have been fantastic this season in the Premier League, and keeping Moyes at the helm at this point simply throws three points away from our final tally and takes us closer to relegation.
The players have stopped responding to him and his methods, and the results have been horrendous for well over a year now when it comes to the Premier League.
There are people who are surely available to bring in as a manager for the short-term that would do a better job, because at this point nobody could do a worse job.
He has to be removed from his role and replaced quickly because we’re running it far too close to relegation for a team that has spent the best part of £200m this season.
It’s not good enough and isn’t remotely up for debate. This is a bad decision from the board.
