"West Ham confirmed earlier on Saturday that Potter had been relieved of his duties, following a return of just three points from five Premier League games this season. Potter lasted only eight months after succeeding Julen Lopetegui, and he departed with the second-lowest win percentage among West Ham bosses to take charge of more than one Premier League game (26.09%), higher than only Avram Grant (18.92%)."
"Nuno led Forest to a seventh-placed finish in the Premier League last season, securing their place in European competition for the first time in 30 years. He also clinched back-to-back seventh-placed finishes with Wolves in 2018-19 and 2019-20, meaning he has made the top seven in three of his four full seasons as a Premier League manager. Nuno won 42% of his Premier League games in charge of Forest (26/62) - the best rate of any boss to lead the club for more than 10 games in the competition."
West Ham appointed Nuno Espirito Santo as head coach on a three-year contract following the dismissal of Graham Potter. Potter was relieved after a return of just three points from five Premier League games and lasted eight months, leaving with the second-lowest win percentage (26.09%) among West Ham bosses who managed more than one game. Nuno arrives less than three weeks after being sacked by Nottingham Forest. His first game in charge will be Monday's clash with Everton at Hill Dickinson Stadium. Academy coaches Mark Robson, Steve Potts, Gerard Prenderville and Billy Lepine will assist on an interim basis. Nuno led Forest to seventh place and European qualification and achieved back-to-back seventh-place finishes with Wolves.
