David Moyes admits he could be asked after West Ham were battered 5-1 at home by Newcastle.
Doubles from Callum Wilson and Joelinston along with Alexander Isak’s strike meant Kurt Zouma’s effort before half time meant little as Eddie Howe’s men took another step towards qualifying for the Champions League. But Moyes is clinging to his job by a thread with the hammers only outside the relegation zone on goal difference.
The East London club face Fulham next before a Europa Conference League quarter-final first leg against Gent, then it’s league leaders Arsenal before the second. A trip to Bournemouth after European duty now looks massive before hosting Liverpool, but there’s doubt whether Moyes will still be in post by the time that comes around. Progression to the last four of the Conference League may help his cause, but Premier League points are the priority and Moyes accepts that their position may be too precarious for him to survive, despite having the board’s backing.
