West Ham United star has claimed that David Moyes told him he has made a very big mistake this season.

David Moyes has experienced all sorts of problems in his role as West Ham United manager so far this season.

West Ham are currently in real danger of being relegated from the Premier League this season, and are currently sitting inside the bottom three.

One of our main problems has been the drastic drop off in form of many of our best players from last season, including the likes of Hammers right-back Vladimir Coufal.

The 30-year-old has been dropped from the first-team on numerous different occasions this season. And it seems as though Moyes believes that that was the wrong call…

West Ham star claims David Moyes told him he has made a big mistake

Coufal has been speaking to Sport.cz for a wide-ranging interview whilst on international duty with the Czech Republic.

And the former Slavia Prague man has claimed that Moyes has admitted the error of his ways to him:

“Right after the World Cup, he called me and said that I was important to him, that it was a mistake that I didn’t play a few matches. He held me and said that if I had planned to leave for somewhere, he wouldn’t let me go.”

In fairness to Coufal, he is the best right-back at the club and despite his poor form, the likes of Ben Johnson and Thilo Kehrer shouldn’t be anywhere near taking his place.

David Moyes has made plenty of mistakes at West Ham this season.

One of the biggest has been taking Coufal out of the starting lineup for a sustained period of time though in my view.

However, the good thing is that he admitted that.
