No one is stopping Liverpool – except Nottingham Forest. However, this does not ease the pain of West Ham supporters after this year’s big event with Christmas football. Liverpool sent West Ham’s home fans out of the London Stadium with a 0-5 loss. The anger and disappointment over the overrun was eased onto coach Julen Lopetegui. A deafening beeping concert followed the former Real Madrid coach out of the stadium.
In 13th place in the Premier League table, supporters have demanded Lopetegui’s exit, but the Spaniard has gained continued confidence. After Sunday’s heavy loss to Liverpool, there were plenty of arguments to send the coach out of the club, but the West Ham management has made their decision.
The Telegraph reports the London club that finished in 9th place last season “peaces” Lopetegui. West Ham were very active in the summer transfer market, the decision has been made according to the English media that Lopetegui will have more time to get the game to give points.
Perhaps the West Ham management is reassured by the fact that Manchester United are behind in the table, while the gap to last season’s 5th best club, Tottenham, is only one point.
We pay tribute to clubs that are not controlled by panic and fire the coach, six months after he was the chosen long-term solution.
