Hammers owners now want 45-year-old with 60.4% career win rate to replace David Moyes

The West Ham United owners could now look at a very highly rated 45-year-old manager to replace David Moyes.

David Moyes is still under intense pressure at the London Stadium, in spite of back-to-back wins for West Ham, and the board could replace him in the summer.

Many Hammers fans are unhappy with Moyes, but those outside of the club continue to support the Scot, with the likes of Jeff Stelling questioning why many of us have such an issue with our manager.

He will be out of contract at the London Stadium in the summer, and as things stand he could well be moved on. Feyenoord boss Arne Slot is a man who has been heavily linked with the West Ham hot-seat over the past year or so.

And now it has been claimed that the Hammers owners are keen admirers of the 45-year-old…

West Ham owners could replace David Moyes with Dutchman

According to a report from Give Me Sport, Slot has many admirers at the London Stadium.

Slot has a career win percentage of 60.4% out of the 245 games that he’s managed (Footy Stats). Compare those numbers to Moyes’s record of a 41.82% win rate from 660 games managed (Footy Stats).

You could argue that Slot has managed in easier leagues throughout his career than Moyes has, but the proof is in the pudding when you see the 45-year-old’s team play football.

Feyenoord are on another planet to the Hammers when it comes to intensity, ability to press their opponents high up the pitch and the patterns of play that they execute.

Slot took over at Feyenoord in the summer of 2021 and has taken the Dutch giants to another level in two-and-a-half years.

He guided them to a third place finish in his first season at De Kuip. The Dutchman also took his side to the Europa Conference League final in the 2021/22 season, only to lose to Roma in the final, but things have got even better since then.

Feyenoord won the league last season out in Holland and this season, his side are second in the Eredivisie table, although they’re 10 points adrift of runaway leaders PSV Eindhoven.

Slot deploys an attacking brand of free-flowing football at Feyenoord and I think he’d be the ideal man to usher West Ham into an exciting new era of

He predominantly uses a 4-2-3-1 system but also switches up to a 4-3-3 at times. Slot’s managerial style has been likened to Marcelo Bielsa.

The Feyenoord boss likes his full-backs to push high up the pitch with his two centre-back’s splitting and a ‘ball-playing’ goalkeeper essentially becoming a third defender. He is the man we should be going after is you ask me.
