Luke Littler reacts to what West Ham fans did to Potter’s squad at Brighton
Luke Littler has surprisingly backed West Ham supporters in their latest message to Graham Potter.
There is a growing concern at the London Stadium about what is happening this season, with the Hammers having lost 16 games.
Potter’s side have avoided relegation from the English top flight, but that is largely down to the poor quality of the bottom three teams rather than the work of West Ham.
The Irons are 17th in the Premier League, and they were left stunned after losing 3-2 against Brighton on Saturday (26 April).
It was the manner of the loss that was problematic, as West Ham threw away a 2-1 lead by conceding in the 89th and 92nd minute for Brighton to take all three points.
That collapse came just days after Niclas Fullkrug’s shocking public criticism of his teammates against Southampton during their last outing.
Luke Littler has reacted to a message from West Ham fans
Potter’s men are winless in their last six matches, with the former Chelsea boss having struggled to make any real difference since replacing Julen Lopetegui earlier this season.
Fulkrug’s message was something that the West Ham boss questioned, but West Ham supporters were more supportive of him.
| Premier League table | Games Played | Won | Lost | Points |
| 17. West Ham | 34 | 9 | 16 | 36 |
During the disappointing result against the Seagulls, West Ham fans showed their support for Fulkrug by chanting the “German was right,” as the tension surrounding the London outfit continues to grow.
West Ham fans were given some surprising backing in the form of Darts World Champion, Littler, as he liked a post on Instagram about their chants, with the Man United fan seemingly agreeing with their message.
West Ham have a lot of work to do
The Hammers might have avoided relegation, but it’s evident that there is a lot of work still to be done moving forward, ahead of next season.
West Ham are set to have a busy summer transfer window as Potter looks to implement his own ideas into the team, after spending this season working with Julen Lopetegui’s squad.
Lucas Paqueta is expected to be sold after this season, and that could provide some financial support for Potter as he looks to improve the options available to him.
