West Ham sacking manager David Moyes now would be "harsh", says Sky Sports reporter Dharmesh Sheth.

The Hammers have made a poor start to the season, putting pressure on Moyes and his side, though Sheth cannot see the club's hierarchy making a brutal decision just yet.

Is Moyes' job in danger?

Right now, there is nothing to suggest that West Ham are looking to make a change in the London Stadium dugout.

Under Moyes this term, things are obviously not going well. The east London club have won just one Premier League game so far while losing another five.

It has left them in the relegation zone, but it is still early days, of course, while the campaign as a whole has not been a complete disaster.

West Ham have at least managed to pick up a couple of victories in the Europa Conference League, giving them an extremely good chance of reaching the knockout round.

What has Sheth said about Moyes and West Ham?

Given what Moyes has accomplished during his second spell as West Ham manager, Sheth thinks it would be harsh if they dismissed him now.

Speaking to GIVEMESPORT, the Sky Sports reporter said: "This is, remember, coming off the back of two seasons under David Moyes where they've been challenging in parts of those two seasons, not only just for a top-six finish but to finish in the Champions League places, which is unheard of at West Ham United.

"He took them to the semi-finals of the Europa League. They were a step away from the final of the Europa League and winning the Europa League, which would have meant Champions League as well. And from that, to then say, 'No, it's not working. David, thank you, but no thank you', I think that would be quite harsh and I don't think that would be West Ham United's thinking just now."

Why have West Ham started the season so slowly?

There are probably a couple of reasons. One is the fact that they have made quite a few new signings who still need to settle, the likes of Lucas Paqueta and Gianluca Scamacca.

Some of their top performers from last term have also failed to show up so far. Jarrod Bowen, for example, is yet to score or assist for the Hammers in seven Premier League appearances this season.

Once their better players, like the Englishman, return to form again and their new additions adapt, West Ham should drastically improve and ease the pressure on Moyes.
