Graham Potter & David Moyes ready to take West Ham job with Julen Lopetegui facing sack

Premier League

Bournemouth

West Ham

<p>The Spaniard is under a huge amount of pressure following West Ham's sub-par start to the campaign, and even if he avoids defeat against Wolves this evening it may not be enough to save his job. According to <a href="https://talksport.com/football/2365219/graham-potter-west-ham-interim-manager-julen-lopetegui/" target="_blank"><em>talkSPORT</em></a>, Potter and Moyes would both be open to managing the Hammers until the end of this season if the opportunity were to arise.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>During his two periods as West Ham boss, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/west-ham-confirm-david-moyes-departure-julen-lopetegui-deal-nears-completion/blt30bc89b85efbdc21" target="_blank">Moyes managed 261 games </a>and delivered a first major trophy in over 40 years with the club's 2022-23 Europa Conference League win. However, a large section of the fanbase grew frustrated with his conservative style of play and his replacement Lopetegui hasn't fared much better in this regard. Still, were the former Madrid manager to be replaced with Moyes, it would surely be seen as a backward step by the majority of supporters. Potter, with his more progressive playing style, is likely to be a more popular fit.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>talkSPORT reported: "Graham Potter is willing to take the West Ham job initially until the end of the season. Julen Lopetegui is likely to be sacked if they lose at home to Wolverhampton Wanders on Monday night and the Hammers are considering making a short-term appointment to steer them away from any threat of relegation." </p><p>They added: "talkSPORT understands former boss Moyes is&nbsp;open to a shock third spell&nbsp;at West Ham should his successor get the chop."</p><br><p><strong></strong></p>

WHAT TALKSPORT SAID

<p>For now, the Hammers coach will be aiming to block out the noise surrounding his future and focus on getting a win against relegation rivals Wolves, whose manager <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/harsh-one-gary-o-neil-expected-bad-news-var-reviewed-man-city-winner-wolves-decisions/bltf9c897f720a4779b" target="_blank">Gary O'Neil </a>is also under fire after a string of poor results. Some people have described the upcoming clash between these two under-performing clubs — taking place on <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/watch-west-ham-vs-wolves-premier-league-game-live-stream-tv-channel-start-time/blt686e271eb6c94503" target="_blank">Monday at 8pm at the London Stadium</a> — as 'El Sackico', and it's hard to argue with that sentiment.</p><p></p>

WHAT NEXT FOR LOPETEGUI?
