Following West Ham United’s 2-0 loss to Nottingham Forest yesterday, David Moyes sent out a positive message to the team’s supporters.
Nottingham Forest easily defeated West Ham, putting David Moyes under intense strain. The board is reportedly not thrilled with the team’s present performance, nor with the dissatisfaction of the supporters.
The Hammers have only managed one goal from open play since December 28th, and we have lost our last eight games in all competitions. Due to their dismal performance, some members of the visiting West Ham supporters yesterday demonstrated their support for ‘Moyes Out’ at the City Ground.
The optimism that surrounded the team in June has completely vanished, and the London Stadium is currently shrouded in a mist of sorrow and despair. And Moyes’s remarks to reporters yesterday undoubtedly didn’t alter what most of his supporters believe about him.
Moyes conveys an arrogant message to West Ham supporters
Following our 2-0 loss in the East Midlands yesterday afternoon, the Scot spoke to the media.
And as The Mirror reported, Moyes said in response to a question regarding his opinion of the “Moyes Out” banners:
“Perhaps some fans are ready for a change, or perhaps they’ve worked with managers who have inspired them more. however, the person seated here benefits more. Yes, aside from Trevor Brooking, of course, Moyes has the highest victory % of any West Ham manager in the league!
He was barely a percentage point or two ahead of Slaven Bilic, Harry Redknapp, Alan Curbishley, Manuel Pellegrini, and Alan Pardew, among others.
Yes, Moyes gave us our first major title since 1980, but let’s face it—we had a great chance to win that tournament. Watching the Hammers under the present manager is often excruciating due to the turgid football played by the Scot. It’s clear as day that Moyes isn’t the guy we need to take real steps forward and get to the next level. I apologise to Dave, but at this point, we really don’t need to hear a message full of conceit.
