Mid-table mediocrity for Moyes

  • by Staff Writer
  • Friday, 11th May 2018

West Ham would have finished a comfortable 12th in the Premier League had the season started in November, when David Moyes succeeded Slaven Bilic.

Since Moyes replaced the outgoing Croat at the beginning of November, after 11 rounds of fixtures, the Hammers have taken 30 points from 26 matches - enough to see them comfortably mid-table when only considering League fixtures to have taken place since.

Moyes' West Ham have taken three points more than Rafa Benitez - who has been touted as a possible successor - at Newcastle, and just five points less than Sean Dyche's much-vaunted Burnley team, who ended the season in seventh and qualified for Europe.

The full November to May table, with one round of Premier League matches left to play this weekend, looks as follows.
