West Bromwich Albion boss Tony Pulis is under pressure, and Everton and West Ham United

Dean Saunders, the Wolves manager, looks on during the npower Championship match between Wolverhampton Wanderers and Hull City at Molineux on April 16, 2013 in Wolverhampton, England.

Dean Saunders has told the Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast, which was broadcast on TalkSPORT on 7th November, that both Everton and West Ham United would appoint Tony Pulis, if he was available.

Everton and West Ham are both looking for new managers, after parting company with Ronald Koeman and Slaven Bilic, respectively, in recent weeks.

Everton and West Ham have been two of the biggest under performers in the Premier League this season, with both sides failing to live up to expectations.

And Saunders has, rather controversially, claimed that Pulis would be welcomed at either club – if he wasn’t in a job with West Bromwich Albion.

“If Pulis was available now, both Everton and West Ham would take him – because of their desperation to stay in the Premier League,” Saunders said.

Pulis, himself, is under serious pressure at the moment due to West Brom’s struggles.

The Welsh boss has been criticised over his playing style, which is seen as far too defensive.

West Ham no longer need a new manager, as they appointed David Moyes earlier today.

Everton, though, are still on the hunt for a new boss – following Ronald Koeman’s dismissal last month.

David Unsworth remains in temporary charge at Goodison Park for the time being, but a permanent appointment is expected to be made in the near future.
