- West Ham have made a disastrous start to the season with the club sitting in the Premier League relegation zone; the Hammers face Crystal Palace at home this weekend having already lost two London Stadium derbies this term to Spurs and Chelsea, with an aggregate score of 8-1
Graham Potter is under real pressure as West Ham United head coach heading into Saturday’s home game against Crystal Palace.
West Ham are already in the relegation zone and have conceded eight goals in this season’s two home league games.
The club’s owners are expecting to see a reaction from the players against Palace after another disappointing start to a season.
Potter signed a two-and-a-half-year contract when he replaced Julen Lopetegui at the start of the year. Lopetegui was sacked after West Ham won just six Premier League matches during his six months in charge.
And given West Ham have won six league games under Potter in eight months – which includes a run of just three league wins in 15 games – it has led to questions being asked about his long-term future at the club.
