David Moyes is reportedly considering his position at West Ham United following a disappointing summer transfer window.
That’s according to a recent report from the Daily Mail, who claims the Scottish tactician is unhappy and feels none of his summer targets have been considered by the club’s hierarchy, particularly by directors Tim Steidten and David Sullivan.
David Moyes' may decide to leave West Ham ahead of the new season due to the 'rows' with Steidten and Sullivan over transfer targets.
The Scot feels that none of his targets in this transfer window are being considered by the club.

The Hammers are still the only Premier League club yet to make a single summer signing. Outgoings have happened though.
Declan Rice joined Arsenal in a deal worth £105 million, Arthur Masuaku left in favour of a £2 million move to Besiktas, Manuel Lanzini returned to River Player on a free transfer and Gianluca Scamacca is close to joining Atalanta in a deal worth £26 million. So with nearly £150 million in sales generated, it isn’t like the Hammers don’t have money to reinvest.
However, with Moyes continuing to come up short in the market and the club forced to witness all their rivals strengthen, the former Man United boss’ future in London has now become uncertain.
Do you think Moyes will quit before the start of the season? – Let us know in the comments.
Moyse should have been sacked at Xmas. The Cup win saved his skin but he’s ruining West Ham. His dithering ways have always dampened things at every club he’s worked at.
Get him out now get nobes in he loves the club and winning games
No, I don’t think Moyes will leave before the season starts, but I would be surprised if he is still in charge by the end of this year
He’s too arrogant to leave even when it’s clear he’s not wanted 18 months of crap football everyone’s had enough
Moyes should have been sacked b4 world cup
With our first trophy for 43 years and yes I was at the 1980 final are we not backing hom with the players he wants, 2 really good finishes in the league and a trophy want more do some fans want , another 43 years without anything !!!!!!!
Everything that was achieved happened in spite of moyes and not because of him. Just what sort of football some of you ‘fans’ think you’re watching is beyond me.
The brutal fact about moyes is that all the success we achieved started as a result of 3 signings (Bowen Couchek and Coufal) gelling together with the team and giving us some pace with it. They were not moyes signings and so, as you would like to believe, moyes success was just one fantastic accident, nothing to do with anyone’s tactical genius. Sorry just a fact
Even if all the early success was because of 3 players (it absolutely wasn’t), Moyes signed all 3 of those players, plus loaned Lingard. Not sure why you think they weren’t Moyes signings? But I can guess.
He’s qualified for Europe 3 years on the bounce and won our first trophy in 43 years. Saying that this was achieved in spite of him because you don’t like him is just childish.
You’re welcome to your opinion, but writing “fact” after an opinion absolutely does not make it a fact. I agree the football has been poor for a while, no arguments there.
Opinions are opinions… fact!
IMHO the majority of West Ham signings under Moyes have not been good enough. Whether they were his signings is unclear.
Be careful what you wish for I can see another pelligrini situation all over again.
If he goes you can guarantee there’s no one lined up to take over and there will be another circus show trying to get someone in.
Once idiots have hounded Moyes out and Sullivan appoints Benitez, who’s way more negative than Moyes will ever be, we will see Moyes’s tenure for the Golden Age it is. Three consecutive European qualifications and our first trophy in 43 years. Punching way above our weight for the entire of his reign. Be careful what you wish for.
Between them fekers they are going to finnish this club
The stubborn Scots manager versus the tight money grabbing Welshman. Hmmmm
Moyes should have quit after the cup trophy and would be remebered as a legend
Moyes should of been sacked ages ago! His brand of Football has been dire, the money he’s wasted on talent then not to play them, or play them out of position. Dread to think how much of the clubs money he has wasted.
Thanks for keeping us up in the past, oh and winning the cup. But Moyes hasn’t got whats needed to make the changes. Man U came calling and he ruined that, Sunderland relegation.
As for he deserves something for the cup win, how about the fans right to watch decent football rather than moyesball which is basically anti-football.
And don’t forget he had 13 years at Everton and won nothing-but he did keep them in the Prem.
Moyes lost the plot a long time ago players are sometimes like rabbits caught in the headlights he’s way too defensive minded and has mad a team I’ve followed for fifty seven years one of the easiest sides to beat in the premiership.Fans deserve much more and all I’ve ever wanted was to see players playing for the badge nobes was a shining example of that and no surprises that we started playing shit football after nobes retired.please please Moyes go and f___k up some other side.
Steve the Hammer
Give Graham Potter and his coaching team a project, but everyone must buy-in to it, and be much more patient than Chelsea were.
Brighton extended his contract, and were prepared to drop down with him the first year, but didn’t.
Potter should be able to steer West Ham safely clear of relegation, and who knows what the potential might be. Maybe finish ahead of Chelsea? Ha, ha!
Potter hasn’t yet proved himself as a top premiership manager.
It does appear David Moyes position is untenable.
I would leave the club its a joke what they are doing to the club relegation on the plate at the moment get rid of the board
Having reminded myself just how average most of our squad is by watching the pre season friendlies it difficult to see how we are going to have any success this season.
How many of our players would be good enough to command their position in a top six team? Maybe Bowen and Paquata with Aquerd a possibility.
We have no forward line capable of scoring anymore goals than last season and with Antonio and Ings past it I do hope that Moyes isn’t thinking Mubama will fill the gap as he’s nowhere near good enough to worry most premiership defences, yet.
Clearly Maguire and McTominay are not good enough for an average United team ((by their standards) so, why is Moyes so insistent on paying stupid money for them? Moyes is correct that Maguire would enhance our limited back line but only as a Dawson type acquisition, £10m at most. McTominay certainly not instead of Ward-Prowse at any cost.
If Moyes buys them both then we may just avoid relegation again but if he goes for Ward-Prowse and Alvarez at least the quality is there for a few years and he can continue to improve from a more solid foundation.
Should Moyes go? Probably as he has no idea how to attack but his next transfers will be crucial to his future with us.
Moyes is West Hams best manager ever.
I Hope he Will leave as soon as possible. The club needs a boss with a modern thought of how to play modern fotball. It is 2023 not 2003 or 1993!
