Even if performance and results have recently improved. Simon Jordan and Danny Murphy think David Moyes’ time at West Ham is up. Last month at this time, David Moyes was facing intense pressure at West Ham.
According to rumours, Moyes had to win against Fulham on the road in order to keep his job after his team’s 5-1 home loss to Newcastle. The Hammers overcame the Cottagers 1-0 thanks to a resolute defending. Following that, West Ham defeated relegation-fighting rivals Bournemouth 4-0. This was followed by remarkable comeback victories against Arsenal and Gent.
West Ham presently seems to be just one victory away from securing their place in the Premier League. The Hammers will also take on AZ Alkmaar in their second consecutive European semifinal.
The Manager’s Future After This Season Is Still Being Debated
Liverpool defeated West Ham 2-1 on Wednesday night at the London Stadium, putting a stop to their comeback. Because Moyes looked to return to the risk-averse strategies that had displeased them prior to their recent success, several West Ham supporters were appalled. Especially given that Liverpool’s defenders once again seems to be severely exposed.
The team he chose has also been criticized by fans, who also criticize Moyes for being rigid when making substitutions and frequently waiting till the hour mark. West Ham has recently been much more aggressive and successful. But the team’s possession and passing statistics are declining.
The debate over whether Moyes should be kept after this summer has continued as a result. West Ham will part ways with the Scot this summer, according to a new story in The Times, even if the Hammers stay in the league and win the Europa League.
Especially now that Moyes has formally declared his intention to remain as manager for the upcoming season. Despite the recent improvement, Simon Jordan and Danny Murphy think Moyes’ time at West Ham is up.
Simon Jordan and Danny Murphy Assert That David Moyes Has Finished is career At West Ham
The two praised Moyes’ efforts in east London while speaking on talkSPORT. They both concur, however, that they ought to part ways in the summer. Murphy asserts that West Ham wants a “style change.”
Murphy concurred that Moyes performed admirably. He did, however, add that he thought West Ham need a more forward-thinking strategy. And although they want to modify the style (at West Ham), he will not. He added, “I actually think he’s done really well. And I think Simon’s right in that he has probably run his race. But for the benefit of him (as much as West Ham), because he’ll get another good job.
Jordan said,“I like him as a person, I like him as a manager – I know there’s a moniker that goes with him which is ‘Dithering Dave’ where he doesn’t make decisions and I think there’s some mitigation behind that but not all the way,”
Although Moyes led West Ham to what may be their first major championship in 43 years, manager has come under a lot of criticism this year. Indeed, Moyes received significant funding to advance the Irons to the top tiers after directing league results of sixth (2020–21) and seventh (202–22) in the previous two seasons.
