The situation of West Ham United manager David Moyes ‘feels a little bit different’ to his counterparts at other clubs, according to Sky Sports reporter Dharmesh Sheth.

Former Wolverhampton Wanderers boss Bruno Lage became the third Premier League manager to be sacked over the weekend, yet Moyes still appears to be relatively safe in his current position.

What is the latest news involving Moyes?

West Ham dragged themselves out of the relegation zone with a 2-0 victory over Wolves on Saturday evening, leading to Lage’s dismissal the following day.

That was only the Hammers’ second top-flight victory of 2022/23 in their opening eight fixtures, though, and they remain just one point above the bottom three following a slow start to the season.

Thomas Tuchel and Scott Parker have already been dismissed from their roles at Chelsea and Bournemouth respectively, while the likes of Brendan Rodgers and Steve Cooper are also coming under scrutiny.

However, Moyes perhaps has more credit in the bank than the aforementioned managers due to his impressive previous exploits with West Ham.

After guiding them to safety with ease in his first stint at the club, the Scottish tactician returned on a permanent basis in December 2019, guiding the east London outfit to a sixth-placed finish, the Europa League semi-finals and a seventh-placed finish.

What has Sheth said about Moyes?

Sheth believes that ‘given the history’ of Moyes at West Ham, his circumstances have a different aura to his Premier League equivalents.

He told GiveMeSport: “Look, I don't run football clubs, and we've seen funnier things happen when you don't expect managers to lose their jobs, and they do.

“But it just feels a little bit different at West Ham United given the history of David Moyes at that club.”

Who is up next for West Ham?

West Ham got a hectic October fixture schedule off to a promising start last time out and have another eight fixtures this month in all competitions to build on that momentum.

The Irons are set to take on Anderlecht twice and Silkeborg in the Europa Conference League, while also taking on Fulham, Southampton and Bournemouth in some winnable Premier League clashes.

Trips to Anfield and Old Trafford to face Liverpool and Manchester United could prove to be trickier tasks for West Ham, although neither side are in scintillating form at present.

October could be a crucial month in Moyes’ tenure, and West Ham will surely need to pick up some positive results to keep the pressure off his back.
