West Ham is benefiting from Moyes’ tenure, but at some point, the Hammers will have to consider a replacement.
For the immediate future and perhaps for as long as Moyes wants to lead West Ham, he is definitely safe as houses.
However, it is evident that the Hammers will need to consider a replacement in the future.
And over time, there has been a certain managerial candidate who has grown more and more intriguing.
The Will Still story is already well known to you all.
For those who don’t, though, Still is the youthful coach who has unfancied Reims in the Ligue 1 by storm.
The remarkable story about Still and what he has been doing at Reims is fascinating.
Stock rises for man tipped to be future West Ham boss after Will Still’s side scores total football wonder goal
Hammers News suggested recently that Still is a man worth keeping an eye on for the future post-Moyes at West Ham.
Having repeatedly stated in interviews that he dreams of managing his beloved West Ham, it was no surprise Still was linked as a potential replacement for Moyes during the dark days last season.
Indeed it was even claimed Still was on a six-man shortlist compiled by the West Ham board should they have parted ways with Moyes.
Still put that talk to bed when he signed a new contract with Reims in the summer.
But stock continues to rise for the man tipped to be a future West Ham boss after Still’s side scored a total football wonder goal.
