West Ham respond to chants for Julen Lopetegui to be sacked as season hinges on Aston Villa
West Ham fans are once again demanding that Julen Lopetegui is sacked after conceding nine goals in heavy defeats to Man City and Liverpool.
When West Ham put in shambolic performances to lose 5-2 and 3-1 against Arsenal and Leicester, supporters had seen enough.
There had already been calls for Julen Lopetegui to be fired following the 4-1 defeat at Spurs in October and the fortunate 0-0 draw at home to Everton going into the November international break.
The Spaniard survived those and was then handed another reprieve after Leicester.
That was despite West Ham’s hardcore away support turning on Lopetegui for the first time.
Chants of ‘You’re getting sacked in the morning’ rang out at the King Power that night.
The 58-year-old wasn’t, though, as David Sullivan elected to give the manager one more chance.
West Ham somehow picked up two extremely lucky wins over woeful Wolves and Southampton either side of fortunate draws against Bournemouth and Brighton.
