West Ham Make Final Decision on David Moyes After Third Successive Home Defeat

• Manager David Moyes will not be sacked by West Ham despite a worrying league campaign so far
• The Hammers succumbed to a third straight defeat on Saturday, November 12, losing 2-0 to Leicester
• That result left them just one point above the relegation zone of the English Premier League

West Ham United will not sack David Moyes, despite the club’s recent slump in form in the Premier League.

The London club is backing their manager, despite losing three home matches in the space of a week to Crystal Palace, Blackburn and more recently, Leicester City.

Fans have been growing increasingly frustrated with the recent results, and there have been muffled calls to have Moyes dismissed.

But according to the BBC, the senior members of the West Ham hierarchy feel that despite the poor results, the Scot deserves a chance to turn the club’s season around.

Moyes returned to the club in 201. It proved to be a fairytale reunion, as he managed to secure the club’s Premier League status and guide them to a European finish in the seasons to follow.

Last season, West Ham reached the semi-finals of the Europa League where they were beaten by Eintracht Frankfurt, who went on to win the competition.

They are currently still in Europe, albeit in the third-tier Europa Conference League, for which they qualified for the last 16.

Despite a poor domestic season so far, Moyes is still held in high regard among the club’s bosses. He is particularly credited for turning midfielder Declan Rice into one of the best in his position in world football.
