Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler believes that David Moyes is the right fit for West Ham.
The Hammers appointed Moyes as their manager two weeks ago after sacking Slaven Bilic due to their poor performances of late.
The East London club are currently languishing in 18th position on the League standings after taking just 9 points from their 12 Premier League games played thus far.
Many fans of West Ham were naturally skeptical when Moyes was appointed as the clubs manager considering that his past three managerial stints with Manchester United, Real Sociedad and Sunderland were unsuccessful.
The fact that the Hammers lost 2-0 against Watford this weekend in Moyes first match in charge of the team would also not have helped matters. Fowler however believes that Moyes is the right man to turn the club’s fortunes around.
“I know Moyes won’t be thinking of the negatives, he’ll be thinking it’s a chance to show people he wasn’t the failure everyone assumes after the Sunderland experience,” wrote Fowler in his column for the Mirror.
“Ok, he’s gone into a really tough environment and a hard task of having to win over a large sector of the fans. But his qualities could also be what West Ham need at this moment.
“He was never a flair boss at Everton, but he got his team organised, knew how to get results and, when things were going well, they could play decent football. That discipline and strength will suit West Ham right now.
“They need to find consistency and grind out a few results and then, maybe with the confidence that brings, they can be a bit more expansive again.”
