The Hammers were thrashed 6-0 by Arsenal on Sunday to compound a shocking run of form which has seen them unable to register a win in 2024.

According to The Telegraph, should West Ham’s current poor form continue over the next few games, 60-year-old Moyes could find himself relieved of his duties.

Moyes is expected to improve results in the coming weeks with games against Nottingham Forest, Brentford, Everton and Burnley all up in their next four league games.

However, in the event he is unable to do so, replacements are already being considered.
