    West Ham, the crisis continues. Billic's future is uncertain,Mancini is a candidate

    West Ham's start to this new EPL season was not the one that Hammers fans were hoping for. They now have two options: to sack Billic or to retain his services. David Gold and David Sullivan (West Ham owners) have been pondering of doing a change and their loss to Southampton might speed things up. The feeling is that Billic's future is in jeopardy. 

    Bad start- The West Ham ownership had given Billic time for improvements since there has been many injuries (Ayew,Carroll,Diafra Sakho and Cresswell are still out) but time is now running out. A team that can count on players of the caliber of Noble,Payet,Lanzini,Calleri,Zaza,Feghouli and others have to perform better. West Ham have only accumulated 3 points in their first 6 EPL games which is way bellow initial expectations. They also have the worst defense in the EPL so far this season (16 goals against). 

    Mancini is a candidate- Billic's position is very uncertain to say the least and from what Calciomercato.com have learnt, Roberto Mancini is a candidate to replace him. Mancini knows the EPL well since he played for Leicester in 2001 and was Manchester City coach from 2009 to 2013. He currently is free to choose a club.
