West Ham gave themselves a major boost in their survival bid with a crucial 3-0 win over relegation rivals Southampton at the weekend.

The Hammers had been dragged back into the thick of the relegation battle after a string of poor results.

But the victory has pushed the East Londoners up to 14th and has given David Moyes’ side a five point cushion over the bottom three with seven games remaining.

While there is still work to do yet to secure survival, Moyes clearly feels confident – not only of staying up but keeping the West Ham job long-term too having been spotted on a scouting mission at Fulham on Tuesday night.

The Hammers were linked with Fulham stars Tom Cairney and Ryan Fredericks in January.

But according to popular Twitter ITK ExWHUEmployee, Moyes was watching not one, not two but three Fulham stars when he took in their 2-0 win over Leeds United at Craven Cottage.

“David Moyes was at the Fulham match today watching: Fredericks, Cairney and Mitrovic,” ExWHUEmployee said on Twitter on Tuesday night.

The trio have been the driving force behind Fulham’s drive for promotion back to the Premier League under former Hammers managerial target Slavisa Jokanovic.

Hammers fans are hoping the club will follow up their interest in Cairney this summer while Fredericks is reportedly being lined up as the club’s first signing of the close season on a free transfer, as previously reported on HITC.com.
