Although David Moyes is still expected to receive a new contract offer, the board may need to reevaluate if his current bad performance persists. Should the situation arise, they will need to exercise extreme caution in selecting his replacement, since he has led West Ham to one of the most prosperous eras in the team’s history.

Although there aren’t many managers without a club right now, SportLens thinks they may target one of the young managers.
Since joining Middlesbrough, Michael Carrick has performed admirably, and the former Hammer may succeed Moyes. Although they only missed out on promotion the previous year, his team made it to the League Cup semifinals this year.
The news source suggested Pauli Fonseca of Lille as a substitute for him. The French squad is only one point behind third-place Brest in Ligue 1 at the moment.
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.
