Richard Keys delivers scathing criticism of Karren Brady over West Ham decisions.
Richard Keys slams West Ham's Karren Brady for letting David Moyes go.
The Scottish manager departed West Ham at the end of the 2023/24 season after declining to sign a new contract.
Julen Lopetegui replaced him in the summer, but the Spaniard is already under immense pressure following a poor start to his tenure at the London Stadium.
Former Sky Sports presenter Richard Keys criticized West Ham vice-chair Karren Brady in his blog after the team’s 5-0 defeat to Liverpool, stating, “Karen and co must regret treating David Moyes with such contempt.”
West Ham’s Moyes Dilemma
The Hammers had little choice but to part ways with Moyes last season, as his relationship with the club had become unsustainable.
Despite guiding the team to sixth and seventh-place finishes in the Premier League and securing their first trophy since 1980 by winning the UEFA Europa Conference League in 2023, Moyes faced criticism.
His conservative style of play and approach to youth development, coupled with frustrations over the club’s delay in offering a new contract, led to tensions.
A February 15 report by The Athletic revealed that 75% of West Ham fans surveyed opposed renewing Moyes’ contract.
Losing fan support often marks the point of no return for managers.
Consequently, West Ham appointed former Wolves boss Lopetegui and provided significant backing in the transfer market.
However, if Lopetegui’s struggles persist, he risks finding himself in the same predicament as Moyes.
The Hammers may soon face the prospect of searching for another manager, with Brady and her team potentially forced to act swiftly once again.
