West Ham United reportedly plan to offer David Moyes a new long-term contract after their Premier League survival hopes were boosted.
West Ham fans have been reacting on Twitter to the reports that recently emerged from the Daily Mirror that suggested that the Hammers board were planning to hand David Moyes a new long-term deal at the London Stadium.
Moyes has endured an eventful spell in charge of the Irons since signing a deal until the end of the season in the wake of Slaven Bilic’s departure.
The low point undoubtedly came just before the international break in the home clash with Burnley, but three weeks later and the situation looks significantly brighter after they thrashed relegation rivals Southampton.
The victory moved the Hammers five points clear of the bottom three and they boast a game in hand over several of the sides below them in the table so can arguably feel fairly confident that they should have enough to avoid getting sucked back into the battle to beat the drop.
However, while there is some support for the job that Moyes has done, a large majority of the fans on social media are disappointed by the reports as they feel that keeping the Scotsman represents a lack of ambition given where the team currently are in the table.
They feel that the club should be aiming their sights higher if they want to move themselves away from the relegation battle next season, while others have a lot of sympathy for the circumstances that Moyes has had to deal with and feel that he deserves the chance to get a summer window under his belt.
