West Ham United fans questioned by Joe Cole as David Moyes tipped for ‘big’ job
Joe Cole has tipped David Moyes to take on another “big” job if he leaves West Ham this summer amid talk about his long-term future at the London Stadium.
The Hammers boss has come under fire this season for the team’s inconsistent performances, and after a 5-2 defeat to Crystal Palace, Cole thinks an exit could suit both parties.
He insisted that he believes Moyes has done an “unbelievable” job since arriving at the London Stadium, and said he would stick with him, but conceded that seems unlikely at this stage.
Speaking live on talkSPORT [22 April, 11:16], Cole shared: “What he’s done has been unbelievable. I’ve been banging the drum for him because, in the last three years, I think this is the best squad of players that West Ham have had.
“I would stick with him, but the more I look at the situation I feel it’s probably a parting that will happen and it will suit both. I think David’s got another big job after West Ham as well.
“I just don’t understand why the fans can’t warm to him.”
David Moyes sack verdict emerges at West Ham
Given the inconsistent results at the London Stadium this season, it has felt for a while that Moyes would inevitably leave come the end of his contract, but recent results could fast-track the decision as frustrations continue to grow.
Former Hammers man Frank McAvennie shared that, if Moyes wanted to stay, he would have already signed the new deal which had reportedly been on the table since the Christmas period amid plenty of questions surrounding his role.
However, with that deal unsigned and uncertainty lingering, Moyes’ time at the club looks to be coming to an unhappy end given the standard of the performances with just one win in the Hammers’ last eight games.
Whether he goes on to a “big” job after leaving the London Stadium remains to be seen, but regardless of the frustrations surrounding him, it cannot be argued that he has done a good job overall since arriving at West Ham.
