The Debate: David Moyes

Shortly after the Bournemouth game myself and a few friends were talking all things West Ham over a few drinks and as the conversation drifted and we decided to film our debate.

We’ve stuck to one subject (sort of) and on this occasion it’s our manager David Moyes who get’s put under the microscope. We discuss his appointment, tactics, managerial record, deployment of players and use of substitutes. We also give our opinions on whether he should be retained at the end of his six month probationary period and try to assess if Moyes is David Sullivan’s ideal manager.

We also look at the often made comparisons between him and Sam Allardyce as well as pondering if he has the ability to change his style as he introduces more of his own choice of player into the team.

It’s fair to say that we did not all agree on everything and his continual deployment of Cheik Kouyate in midfield certainly didn’t meet with universal approval but hopefully we gave a fair appraisal of the manager thus far.

Hopefully you enjoyed the video, we’ll do another next time and try to keep to a single subject once again. Maybe next time we’ll discuss the strikers, stadium, owners or signings. Please do let us know in the comments below if you can think of anything you’d like us to discuss.

If you have any views of your own that you’d like to feature on a video then please send your clips in to info@hammerchat.com
