West Ham have been absolutely awful in the league this season. Nothing less than a win against Fulham will do tomorrow.

And with that in mind, Moyes’s pre-game comments came as somewhat of a surprise to me…

David Moyes makes baffling comments ahead of Fulham vs West Ham

Fulham are without the suspended Aleksandar Mitrovic – their best player, for tomorrow’s clash with the Hammers.

The Serbian missing out is great news for West Ham.

However, when asked about Mitrovic missing the game, Moyes’s response beggared belief, as quoted by Football.London:

“I couldn’t tell you much about Fulham as a squad. Mitrovic as a player, the goals he scored in the Championship was amazing. It’s maybe a huge blow to Fulham.”

I find it totally unacceptable that our manager does not know much about the team that we are playing tomorrow, in a must win game.

The lack of homework that Moyes has done on Fulham is just unacceptable in my eyes, and it’s evidence of the absolute arrogance of the man.

He just can’t help himself sometimes can he. It’s like he thinks we should all be unconditionally grateful to him for getting us back-to-back top seven finishes.

Is there another Premier League manager out there who would be so stubborn as to not even do research on their opponents? I think not.

All we can hope is that the Scot is playing it down, and he has done his due diligence on tomorrow’s opponents.

The Fulham vs West Ham game is the biggest one of our Premier League season so far. it would be nice if our manager knew their strengths and weaknesses inside out. That’s surely not too much to ask is it?
