Moyes in talks with Psycho
On Monday the former Hammer nicknamed Psycho told Talksport “I’ve had no contact with West Ham if that’s what you mean, but if I had contact with them I would certainly go and talk to them.”
Pearce has not been in the management since leaving his job as Nottingham Forest boss over two years ago. He first became a coach under Kevin Keegan after his playing days ended later becoming a caretaker manager in 2005 and then permanent manager until 2007.
In February 2007, before his sacking by Manchester City, Pearce had been appointed manager of the England national under-21 team, a role which became full-time until 2013. He also went on to manage the Great Britain Olympic football team for their matches at the 2012 Summer Olympics.
Pearce was appointed as the manager of Nottingham Forest in 2014 but was later sacked in 2015 after a poor start to the season.
Pearce joined West Ham as a player in 1999 after falling out of favour with Newcastle manager Ruud Gullit. He made his debut on 7 August 1999 in a 1–0 home win against Spurs. His first goal came on 21 October 2000 in a 2–1 home defeat to Arsenal. He made 50 appearances in all competitions, scoring three goals and in 2001 he was named Hammer of the Year.
