West Ham urged to take down Graham Potter post after major sack update
West Ham United are a club in crisis right now on the back of losing to Crystal Palace on Saturday.
West Ham fans protested against David Sullivan ahead of the Premier League meeting with the Eagles at the London Stadium.
Crystal Palace were 2-1 winners against West Ham in a loss that leaves United inside the Premier League relegation with five matches played.
BBC Sport shared a major update on Graham Potter‘s future at full-time, with West Ham seeking managerial replacements after this latest loss.
And it appears there is nothing West Ham can do right at the moment judging by their latest social media activity.
Graham Potter reacts to West Ham’s latest loss
Slaven Bilic is now considered the favourite to replace Potter at West Ham, with a change in the dugout surely now close.
Potter cut a frustrated figure pretty much throughout the Palace game, Jarrod Bowen’s goal aside, and he surely accepts his time is up.
The Englishman offered his thoughts to the club channel after the game, admitting that “we’re all hurting” and that it is a “tough” spell for the East London outfit.
These are comments West Ham fans have become accustomed to hearing from Potter, and talkSPORT broadcaster Tom Rennie was one of many to question why the video was even posted on X.
“This is not worth posting guys,” Rennie wrote. “Nobody is interested in what he has to say.
“Never thought I’d see a West Ham manager worse than Avram Grant.”
Slaven Bilic surely not the right man for West Ham
Bilic is one of a handful of names to have been linked with the West Ham job over the past few weeks, with Gary O’Neil another name seemingly gaining some traction.
Managers linked with West Ham:
- Nuno Espirito Santos
- Gary O’Neil
- Slaven Bilic
- Kieran McKenna
- Sean Dyche
The bottom line is that West Ham need Potter out of the London Stadium right now. Many will not even care who replaces him.
However, it is in West Ham’s long-term interest to get the next appointment spot on. Bilic is well liked at the London Stadium, but he is surely not the right choice at this moment in time.
Bilic has been out of work since last year, with clubs not exactly queuing up for his services. The only advantage in the view of Sullivan is that the Croatian is available for no compensation.
Whoever it is that comes in, though, there is no question that they will do a better job than the one Potter’s done.
