West Ham are having to deal with a difficult situation amid the round of poor results and David Moyes is in a unique situation at the London Stadium .
David Moyes’ unique situation
That seems to be the opinion of Sky reporter Dharmesh Sheth who, talking to Give me Sport , claimed the West Ham manager’s manager’s position was “unique” which might have been a clever use of word in downplaying the difficulty of the situation
He said that had been the case since the appointment of Tim Steidten as technical director in the summer with the signings the club made looking split between the two.
Claret and Hugh has pointed out previously that Steidten was indeed responsible for the arrivals of Edson Alvarez, Mohamed Kudus and Konstantinos Mavropanos whilst Moyes had brought in James Ward-Prowse.
Unique is a good word to describe the situation as normally the manager explains the type of player he wants to the technical director who then finds guys who fit the particular roles required.
Commenting, Sheth said:“We talked about this with Erik ten Hag, of course, that every manager is going to be under pressure because of results.
“The David Moyes situation is quite a unique one because you’ve got a situation at West Ham United now where things have slightly changed behind the scenes.
“You’ve got a new technical director in Tim Steidten who, if you look at the signings that West Ham have made since he’s been there, there seems to be David Moyes signings, you could argue, and Tim Steidten signings.”
