West Ham owners are losing faith in Pellegrini
Solhekol told his 200,000 Twitter followers this morning “West Ham owners losing faith in manager Manuel Pellegrini. Discussions ongoing about whether he’s right man for the job. Last night’s performance nowhere near good enough. They desperately don’t want to have to change managers mid season but real concerns now about performances.”
West Ham travel to the south coast to play Southampton at St Mary’s on Saturday and the game is considered by many as a must win for the 67-year-old Chilean should he want any chance of saving his job.
The Hammers are just one point off the relegation zone in 16th place in the Premier League table and a loss to 18th place Southampton could see West Ham drop in the relegation zone for Christmas day. With the Liverpool game postponed the Hammers are not scheduled to play again until Boxing day against Crystal Palace giving the West Ham able time to replace the manager should he not get a result this weekend.
