5 managers West Ham United could have appointed instead of Moyes

#3 Frank de Boer

De Boer most certainly plays the 'West Ham way'

Another Dutchman, this time in the form of Frank de Boer, who was sacked from Crystal Palace after just four games this season. He was trying to implement a completely new style of football for the Eagles, one which suits West Ham and their demanding support perfectly.

A manager who won four league titles in six seasons at Ajax has faltered since he left the Amsterdam side; he needs a board that will give him time, not like the one at Selhurst Park who hung him out to dry so early in the season. Whilst this may not have been the time for West Ham to experiment, it would certainly have been an appointment that would benefit them in the long run.

Senior Games Managed: 281 | Wins: 163 | Draws: 60 | Draws: 58

A team with the likes of Joe Hart, Pablo Zabaleta and Javier Hernandez shouldn't be getting relegated, in fact, you could argue they shouldn't even be in the bottom half. So, it may have clicked straight away, but, West Ham would stay in the league whilst developing their footballing style, so come the summer, they would be ready to go.

Don't forget that West Ham are still in the Carabao Cup as well, so if de Boer guided them to a trophy, he would instantly be elevated to near God status meaning, not only would their style develop, they would also have European football at the Olympic Stadium next year.

He hasn't really been given a fair crack of the whip anywhere since Ajax, should he been given the chance he warrants at the 'Iron'?
