“Would you take David Moyes back” The Hammers Fans handed HUGE Moyes return verdict and now in dilemma on Lopetegui Poor start already reflecting on London Stadium future following recent Paqueta and Soler coup….. Was Moyes this bad?
Julen Lopetegui’s tough start at the London Stadium worsened with a 3-0 loss to Chelsea on Saturday (21 September), increasing pressure from fans on the new West Ham manager.
While the former Real Madrid boss isn’t believed to be in immediate danger of being sacked [Fabrizio Romano, 22 September], talkSPORT host Jason Cundy wasted no time in asking fans if they would welcome David Moyes back.
During a talkSPORT segment on Saturday (21 September, 17:33), Cundy asked, “Would you take David Moyes back?” A supporter replied, “Nah, I wouldn’t take him back, I really wouldn’t.” Co-host Jamie O’Hara then cautioned fans, saying, “Be careful what you wish for. We told West Ham fans this season. You called Moyes’ football boring, but it was European football every week.”
The question now is whether West Ham would consider sacking Lopetegui. While the club has turned to Moyes in the past after parting ways, it seems unlikely they’ll make that move again.
Lopetegui’s start has been underwhelming, but the challenging fixtures he’s faced would test even the best managers. Though the performances have been far from satisfactory, and some fans worry his appointment might have set the team back, there’s still time for him to turn things around.
Given the influx of new signings over the summer, it was expected that the team would take time to find its rhythm. While the adjustment period has lasted longer than hoped, it’s not a total disaster yet.
Bringing Moyes back for a third stint would be seen as a sign of defeat, and it seems doubtful that the club’s leadership would make such a decision.
