David Moyes has remained in his West Ham job despite huge pressure and the board will now feel more confident they have made the correct decision.
The West Ham manager has been asked by reporters how he has been feeling as 13 club bosses have bitten the dust.
As a member of what is described as the ‘manager’s union’ his response is probably predictable but he certainly believes some clubs have been pressed into the decisions.
He told reporters: “I think there’s been 13 managers changed. And four out of them might have turned things around.
“I think some really, really good managers have left their jobs. I can think of Brendan Rodgers, I can think of Ralph Hassenhuttl I can think of Jesse Marsch I can think of many managers who’ve left their jobs.
“You have to say sometimes, they are the wrong decisions. And maybe, maybe clubs are getting pushed into making making these sorts of decisions.
You have to say to the owners at West Ham, they have done a great job. They’ve stood by me. We have still got a lot of games to go to prove that they’ve made the right decision. But hopefully we can prove that by the end of the season.”
The strangest thing is when you hear people wanting to get rid of Moyes and replace him with a manager who has just been sacked by another team. It makes no sense whatsoever to me.
Is this season some kind of record? Or were there more in any other season?
