Recommended Posts

According to the Beeb, Julen Lopetegui has agreed to replace David Moyes at the end of the season.

A horrid time for it to come out, presuming it's true. And where will David Moyes go next? Clubs can't resist rolling the dice, but West Ham are in a very strong position with their huge ground that we all paid for, located in lovely London (which is a big draw for overseas talent). Yet they haven't quite made the breakthrough into the Premier League's elite.

This is a massive gamble. Moyes gives you a guarantee of a good finish but miserable football and Lopetegui had a bit of a shocker at Wolves (albeit a poisoned chalice). Lopetegui has a great reputation though and will certainly be a bigger draw to players.

Lopetegui had a bit of a shocker at Madrid, no at Wolves. He took them over when they were bottom of the table and finished 13th, before resigning because they had nothing to spend - shows what a good job O’Neil has done since.

But West Ham are a funny one. They crave good football. Moyes has done a brilliant job there, as good if not better than the job Howe has done at Newcastle.

Moyes can’t really lose from the situation though. If West Ham do poorly it will look good on him, and if West Ham push on he can say he built the foundations for it.

Forest?

Think Moyes might wait for a Prem job?!

You do wonder what sort of person would work for their owner now.
