Ex-West Ham star heading for stunning return as David Moyes heads towards exit signs

With rumours continuing that David Moyes is heading for the sack at WEST HAM – it has been claimed that Michael Carrick could take over the club.

West Ham finished seventh in the Premier League last season and reached the semi-finals of the Europa Conference League, and there was a massive feeling that they could push on from that this season.

However – Performances this season have been nowhere near as good though, with the club facing the prospect of relegation after failing to keep the clean sheets and score the goals that many had hoped for.

Defeat at Brighton has followed their FA Cup exit at the hands of Manchester United during the week, and it is widely believed that the Hammers board are now becoming more frustrated with Moyes, and are ready to find a replacement.

And that led to stunning reports that Carrick is being lined up as a possible replacement to Moyes.

Carrick has got Middlesbrough flying up the Championship table as they currently sit third following a 5-0 win over Reading on Saturday. The ex-playmaker would ideally like to stay in the north-east and guide Boro to promotion, but an opportunity to take over at the London Stadium may be too difficult to turn down.

Carrick has been in charge of just two Premier League games having taken temporary charge at Manchester United following Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s sacking, but claimed a 3-2 win over Arsenal and drew with Chelsea.

He is a very highly-rated young manager with alot of potential, and with some fresh ideas and a new style of play, he could be exactly what WEST HAM need to get their season back on track.
