  1. Its important to recognise the difference between a manager's personality and the outcomes of their actions. Mr Moyes is clearly a charming bloke with great knowledge, insight and experience. But, at the moment, he is clearly failing and this interview will look extremely ironic if he ultimately gets sacked next week. He has been responsible for a couple of years of reletive success, breaking many club records, but for many months he has stagnated and he seems unable to address the slide into mediocrity. He is known for 'dithering' and, unlike his mentor Sir Alex, being very slow to recognise the need for timely intervention. He has shown a certain stubborness, not being willing to drop his favourites even when they are clearly struggling. He undermines the confidence of certain fringe players and does not bring through promising prospects from the youth academy. He has failed to recognise that his tactics now appear to be flawed, he is always unnecessarily defensive, predictable and easy for opponents to overcome. Subsequently West Ham have slipped into the relegation zone and Mr Moyes does not seem to have the neccessary tools to turn things round. Nevertheless, of course, he is a charming chap and deserves respect for what he has done in the past but if I was a share holder of an exec on the Board of West Ham PLC I would be pressing for his replacement.

  2.  @edelgyn2699  I totally agree. PR fluff. As though that is what we need to see at this point in a woeful slump, with us bottom of the league, having won so few games in the last calendar year, with new players not settling and old players no longer playing at the level we need them to. No one being brought in, no one being brought through from the Academy, no one in form. What a terrible time for the club to allow this waffle to be released. Did they think it would reassure West Ham fans? My only point was that Mr Moyes' professional performance is separate from his personality, he is not an idiot but he certainly isn't some guru of management. In fact, of you look at his time at Man Utd he is a failure. And now he is failing again and no one seems to address that in this discussion.
