"Pressure is already mounting on Nuno Espirito Santo at West Ham United, with the Portuguese manager enduring a tough start to life at the London Stadium. Since taking over in late September, Nuno has managed to collect just one point from a possible 12, leaving supporters frustrated and the team sliding down the Premier League table. Despite early speculation about his future, reports indicate that the Hammers' board remain committed to backing their new head coach,"
"Nuno's arrival was meant to mark a fresh chapter after the club parted ways with Graham Potter, but results have yet to reflect improvement. The former Wolves and Tottenham boss began his reign with a draw against Everton, a game that offered brief optimism. However, that was followed by three consecutive defeats, the latest coming in a 21 loss to Leeds United."
"The club's problems, however, extend beyond the forward line. Injuries have further weakened the Hammers' defensive options, with Konstantinos Mavropanos facing an extended spell on the sidelines and summer signing Igor Julio struggling for game time. West Ham are expected to prioritise reinforcements in defense as well as up front. The board's willingness to spend in January is being interpreted as a show of faith in Nuno. Failure to improve, however, may see the board's early patience tested before spring arrives."
Nuno Espirito Santo has struggled after arriving at West Ham, collecting one point from a possible 12 since late September and suffering three successive defeats. The team has slid down the Premier League table and supporters are frustrated. Club leaders recognise recruitment errors, notably not signing an additional striker in the summer, and intend to pursue reinforcements in January to strengthen attack and defence. Injuries have weakened defensive options, with Konstantinos Mavropanos sidelined and Igor Julio lacking game time. The board's planned January spending is seen as a gesture of support for Nuno, but continued poor results may erode that patience.
