David Sullivan was adamant that Julen Lopetegui was the right man for the job at West Ham United in the summer.
However, a poor start to the Premier League campaign has seen Julen Lopetegui be heavily linked with the sack from West Ham already.
Even after Monday’s win over Wolves, Lopetegui is still under severe pressure.
A defeat to Bournemouth could spell the end for him at the London Stadium.
The thing that frustrates me is that it’s clear to see Lopetegui is not the man we need to take us to the next level.
The 58-year-old should have been sacked a long time ago.
And the perfect candidate is out there waiting to replace the Spaniard it seems.
‘Extraordinary’ manager waiting for Julen Lopetegui to be sacked
The Hammers have to make a call on Lopetegui one way or the other soon.
Either stick with him for the season or sack him.
West Ham cannot afford to keeping taking one game at a time, with Lopetegui not knowing where his future lies.
It’s not helpful to anyone, especially with a top-class manager out there literally waiting for the call from Sullivan.
According to a report from talkSPORT, Potter is ‘on standby’ to replace Julen Lopetegui at West Ham.
The 58-year-old Hammers boss is living life on the edge, and it seems like he’s fighting for his job in every single game.
It’s no way to run a football club is it? Rather than having a long-term vision and a plan, we’re stumbling by week to week, without any idea of actually who will be managing us after the next game.
Despite Monday’s win over Wolves, most fans want Lopetegui gone. It was a poor performance – one that lacked any kind of discernible playing style or patterns of play inside the final third.
Graham Potter would be able to change all of that in an instant for West Ham.
The 49-year-old deploys an incredibly exciting brand of free-flowing football, with ball retention at the heart of his core principals.
Potter is very flexible, and has been known to use up to eight different systems during a game.
Described as an ‘extraordinary’ manager by The Metro, the former Chelsea and Brighton boss has what it takes to guide us on to another level.
The Hammers board should just sack Lopetegui now, appoint Potter to replace him and be done with it.
