In the wake of West Ham’s emphatic 4-2 victory over Brentford at the London Stadium, BBC Sport pundit Garth Crooks has issued a resounding call to the club’s supporters: it’s time to throw their full weight behind manager David Moyes. Crooks emphasized the need for the fans to show their unwavering support for Moyes, highlighting the impressive strides the club has made under his leadership.
The Hammers’ standout winger Jarrod Bowen lit up the match by netting a hat-trick, and defender Emerson also hit the target, securing a crucial three points for the team in the Premier League. In light of this victory, Crooks posed the question of when the West Ham faithful will rally behind Moyes and give him the backing he deserves.
Moyes, who has had a tumultuous tenure at the London Stadium during his two spells at the club, has achieved significant success in his second stint. Notably, he led the Hammers to triumph in the Europa Conference League and guided them to strong finishes in the Premier League. The team currently sits in eighth place in the top flight following their recent victory over Brentford, effectively alleviating some of the pressure on Moyes after a challenging 2024.
Looking ahead, it remains to be seen what the future holds for Moyes at West Ham, but Crooks stressed the importance of the fans showing their respect for the experienced manager. Despite any past reservations, Moyes’ impact on the team’s development has been substantial, and he is deserving of the fans’ unwavering support.
As Moyes continues to work tirelessly on the training ground and push the team forward on the pitch, the call to action for West Ham’s supporters is clear: show their backing for Moyes and the club’s ongoing progress under his tenure.
