'I question who is bringing in these managers'

Former Premier League striker Clinton Morrison says "everyone knows" West Ham boss Graham Potter "is under massive pressure" but sometimes you have to be careful what you wish for.

It was another home defeat for the Hammers on Saturday on a day that also brought fans' protests against the owners before the game.

Supporters have not seen a home win since February and have lost their opening three league games at London Stadium for the second consecutive season.

But will the board sack Potter?

"They [the board] have got to give the fans something to cheer about because the players are not doing that," said Morrison on BBC Radio 5 Live's Football Daily podcast. "But I would always say: 'Be careful what you wish for.'

"The fans did not want David Moyes there, but I bet they would have him back in a heartbeat now.

"They [the board] thought Julen Lopetegui would bring attractive football, but they cannot have watched him because his teams just play counter-attacking football and defend. So I question who is bringing in these managers.

"They have also brought in all of these players and spent loads of money but they are not good enough.

"Graham Potter has got his work cut out. Everyone knows he is under massive pressure.

"It looks like there is no going back for Potter and Nuno Espirito Santo is probably the one person you look at and think: 'Can he go in there and change it?'

"He would have to work with the same players but he is defensively strong because we saw what he did at Nottingham Forest."
