It looks like West Ham has found the perfect Moyes replacement.
Although David Moyes is still expected to receive a new contract offer, the board may need to reevaluate if his recent bad performance persists. Should the situation arise, they will need to exercise extreme caution in selecting his replacement, as he has led West Ham to one of the most prosperous eras in the team’s history.
Not many managers are without a club at the moment, but SportLens believe that they could go for one of the up and coming managers.
Michael Carrick has done wonders for Middlesbrough since joining the club, and the former Hammer could be the man to take over from Moyes. His side narrowly missed out on promotion last season and managed to reach the League Cup semi-finals this term.
Alongside him, the news outlet named Lille’s Pauli Fonseca as another option. The French team are currently fourth in Ligue 1 and sit just 1 point behind third placed Brest. Both choices represent a significant departure from the game that some fans have grown to hate—counterattacking. It remains to be seen if it occurs and, more crucially, if it succeeds. In any case, one side of the Moyes controversy will undoubtedly drift to the other.
