Although they’ve played well and remain unbeaten in the Europa Conference League, David Moyes’ West Ham side have been abysmal at times in the Premier League and one ex-Hammer has had his fill.
With nine games of their 2022/23 season left to play, the east Londoners are still only three points above the bottom three, and for a team with such talents as Declan Rice and Jarrod Bowen et al, that simply isn’t good enough.
What makes matters worse for the Scot is that his team appear freer in their European games having won 10 and drawn one of their 11 ties so far, per WhoScored.

I don’t see them going for a foreign manager – unless it was me! I think they need to stick with a British guy, someone who understands the identity of the club.”
It appears that Moyes will be gone at the end of the season, regardless whether he masterminds a great escape of sorts.
