“talkSPORT Host SLAMS West Ham’s BIZARRE Social Media Antics After SHOCKING Potter Post—You Won’t Believe What Happened!”

West Ham fans staged protests against club owner David Sullivan before their Premier League clash with Crystal Palace at the London Stadium.

The afternoon ended in more misery as Palace secured a 2-1 victory, a result that leaves the Hammers stuck in the relegation zone after just five league matches.

At full-time, BBC Sport delivered a significant update on Graham Potter’s position, reporting that West Ham are actively exploring managerial alternatives following another damaging defeat.

Their latest social media posts also suggest a club that appears unable to get anything right at present.

Potter’s response to another setback

Slaven Bilic has emerged as the leading candidate to succeed Potter, with a managerial change now looking imminent.

Potter looked agitated throughout the match, with Jarrod Bowen’s strike providing the only real moment of relief.

The 49-year-old seemed resigned to his fate and later addressed the club’s media channel, admitting that “we’re all hurting” and describing this run of results as a particularly “tough” spell for the East London side.

These familiar comments have done little to appease supporters. TalkSPORT broadcaster Tom Rennie openly questioned why the club even shared Potter’s remarks online, writing: “This is not worth posting guys.

Nobody is interested in what he has to say. Never thought I’d see a West Ham manager worse than Avram Grant.”

Is Bilic the right man?

Bilic is only one of several names being mentioned for the job. Gary O’Neil has also gained traction, while others such as Nuno Espirito Santo, Kieran McKenna, and Sean Dyche are reportedly under consideration.

Potential replacements linked with West Ham include:

Nuno Espirito Santo

Gary O’Neil

Slaven Bilic

Kieran McKenna

Sean Dyche

Despite frustration with Potter, the club’s next move is crucial. Many fans are desperate simply to see a change, but long-term stability depends on making the right appointment.

Bilic, although fondly remembered in East London, may not be the most suitable option at this time.

The Croatian has been out of work since last year and has not attracted serious offers, which perhaps explains Sullivan’s interest given he would require no compensation.

Yet such convenience should not overshadow the need for a progressive and well-planned hire.

What remains clear is that Potter’s reign has reached breaking point. Whoever replaces him will almost certainly be seen as an upgrade on the current situation, as the Hammers attempt to salvage their season.
