The club's ownership are fully behind Moyes despite defeat at Tottenham and have been encouraged by recent performances.

After the Spurs loss Moyes said he would be looking into the players’ eyes to see who is up for the fight.

[Hammers ](https://www.football.london/all-about/west-ham-united)were beaten 2-0 by London rivals Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday to end a three-match Premier League unbeaten run. The Toffees lost their next game to Liverpool but in a relegation six-pointer against the Leeds on Saturday, came out on top to escape the drop zone by a point. Relegation rivals Everton, Leeds United and Southampton have all made recent changes at the managerial position and have seen somewhat of a new-manager bounce. “I am really fortunate that [the board] have recognised the good work which has gone on in the last three years, which is probably the reason I am getting such good support.” At the start of January, Moyes said the club were behind him and were showing him the support needed to turn things around, while admitting losses lead to jobs being under pressure. With speculation mounting that the east London outfit could part ways with the Scot, football.london is of the understanding that no change in the dugout will be made and that Moyes' job is currently safe.

The Hammers again fired another blank against Spurs on Sunday and have scored only 19 times in 23 league fixtures this season.

Ultimately, we treat every game with the same level, but I totally get your message.” “Everyone knows the position we are in but it’s up to us to sort it out.

West Ham boss David Moyes still has the full support of the club despite his team dropping into the Premier League relegation zone over the weekend.

David Moyes' West Ham are in deeper relegation trouble following their latest defeat.

"I'll be looking to see the colour of the players' eyes in the next week," he said in his post-match press conference. The Hammers' hierarchy will have to decide who they want in charge of that rebuild, a decision which will ultimately depend on whether Moyes can instigate a turnaround over the coming weeks. The Hammers are in the relegation zone after the weekend's defeat to [Tottenham](/latest/tottenham-hotspur-fc), and every other team in the bottom six has committed to a change in the dugout at some point this season. The outlier in the relegation scrap is West Ham, who have proven reluctant to axe Moyes despite a dismal run of form. Significant sums were spent on the likes of Lucas Paqueta, Gianluca Scamacca and Nayef Aguerd, among others. The Hammers managed just one shot on target with Spurs worthy of their three points, courtesy of goals from Emerson Royal and Son Heung-min.

Wins for Bournemouth and Everton on Saturday meant the Hammers ended the weekend in 18th place in the table following Sunday's 2-0 defeat at Spurs.

The under-pressure manager, whose West Ham side dropped into the relegation zone after defeat by Spurs, came close to being fired last month.

There remains a desire for Moyes, who has guided West Ham into Europe in successive campaigns, to turn the situation around. [Defeat to Tottenham on Sunday](https://www.theguardian.com/football/2023/feb/19/tottenham-west-ham-premier-league-report) combined with other results over the weekend meant West Ham dropped into the bottom three and increased the pressure on Moyes, who came close to being fired last month. They are also in the last 16 of the Europa Conference League. Moyes will be desperate for a restorative win over Forest, who are five points above the bottom three. The 59-year-old was braced for the worst if West Ham had lost at home to Everton last month, but they won that game convincingly and followed it up with draws against Newcastle The hierarchy is concerned but a shortage of available candidates looks set to delay a decision over Moyes’s future.

Leeds have also fallen into the bottom three, following last Saturday’s loss at Everton and their sacking of Jesse Marsch a fortnight ago. The 59-year-old is set to be sacked if his side lose at home to Nottingham Forest on Saturday, reports the Times.

Mauricio Pochettino and Thomas Tuchel not interested in Hammers job as Moyes faces decisive clash against Nottingham Forest.

One factor in Moyes’ favour appears to be the dearth of suitable replacements, with little more than a third of the League season to go. As then, the club hierarchy insist they remain fully supportive of Moyes and want to give the 59-year-old time to steer the Hammers to safety, as well as the chance to pick up their strong pre-Christmas form in Europe when their Europa Conference League campaign resumes early next month. A 2-0 win in that game - the Irons’ first in the League since October - instead signalled the end of Frank Lampard’s reign at Goodison Park, and was followed by credible draws against Chelsea and Newcastle, as well as progress into the fifth round of the FA Cup.

Another anomaly emerges with goals from crosses: zero in the Premier League so far. The most glaring issue is up top: West Ham should have scored nearly 30 goals but have only converted 19, according to expected goals (xG). The Jamaica international notched eight league assists from an expected-assist (xA) estimate of five during a fruitful campaign last term. Moyes has deployed a 4-2-3-1 system in 11 league games this term but dabbled with three at the back, a 4-3-3 and four other formations - and still relies heavily on the players that helped his side earn a seventh-placed finish last season.

Danny Ings was signed in January, in a move many pointed to as shrewd, before injury almost immediately sidelined the striker.

And so, more than a month after his arrival ahead of a similarly vital clash with Everton, Ings must surely be handed a first start. But, with his position under immediate scrutiny once more, his manager has no time to wait for it to be realised — and three goals in 16 League games does not breed confidence in a pay-off were Moyes to go against his usually cautious instincts by rushing a player back. The question ahead of Saturday's must-win game against Nottingham Forest is not whether one of that pair should start, but which?
