David Moyes left his post as West Ham manager back in May, with Julen Lopetegui coming in to replace him officially in July.
West Ham decided to part ways with David Moyes, after the Scot enjoyed a tremendously successful four-and-a-half year spell in charge at the London Stadium.
Julen Lopetegui has made some big changes since David Moyes was moved on, including giving the players less days off.
Since Moyes’s exit from the club, he has actually talked quite glowingly about us.
It’s a shame that the Scot’s tenure at the London Stadium ended the way that it did.
It’s worth remembering that he guided us to our first major trophy since 1980, when we won the Europa Conference League back in 2023.
Moyes definitely took us on to the next level but the truth of the matter is that he reached his ceiling in charge of the Hammers.
His lack of ambition and dour nature made it impossible to take West Ham forward into an exciting new era.
And that in itself makes the latest report laughable, quite frankly.
You won’t believe the club David Moyes could manage next
The Scot has been out of work since he was moved on by the Hammers four months ago.
The 61-year-old is being strongly linked with a return to Everton (TEAMtalk), but it seems as though he’s eyeing a more glamorous role, shall we say.
That may well surprise the Hammers fans, given the dull football that he deployed at the London Stadium, especially during his final season in charge of the club.
Now the West Ham fans will be stunned by which job Moyes has on his radar.
According to a report from Gazzetto dello Sport (print edition September 19th, page 25), David Moyes has been put forward by his agents as a potential replacement for Paulo Fonseca at AC Milan.
Surely his agents have put forward his name more in hope than genuine belief that he’ll be offered the role by the seven time Champions League winners.
Moyes-ball not the one for Milan
The Hammers fans all have the Scot’s turgid playing style fresh in our memories still.
Something that never ceased to amaze me was the manner in which Moyes switched from an exciting counter-attacking system – one that was so successful – to a painfully slow, frankly putrid brand of pedestrian paced football.
There is sitting deep and giving up possession and then there’s Moyes-ball. The Scot’s final season in charge of West Ham was reminiscent of Sam Allardyce’s system, but on steroids.
Fans of AC Milan not only demand success on the pitch, but they want an attractive brand of football as well.
It’s exactly why Paulo Fonseca is failing. Positive results haven’t been coming, and the Portuguese’s team have been playing some really poor stuff.
I can say with genuine confidence that David Moyes’s next job after leaving West Ham will definitely not be AC Milan.
Either the story is utter rubbish or the Scot’s agents are living in cloud cuckoo land.
