Virals: Carlton Cole full of praise for West Ham manager David Moyes

Former West Ham striker Carlton Cole took to Twitter on Wednesday night after the Hammers all but secured their place in the Europa League for next season. 

Following the 3-1 victory away at the Hawthorns against a Sam Allardyce managed West Brom side, the Irons stand on the brink of a sixth-place finish. 

Anything but a draw will see the east Londoners enter the second-tier European competition next term – some achievement having narrowly avoided relegation last season. 

Cole, who played 267 times for the club during his playing career, hailed the job done by David Moyes on social media

West Ham will face Southampton on Sunday at the London Stadium and will be cheered on by 10,000 members of the Hammers faithful. 

READ WEST HAM VERDICT

Nobody could’ve predicted the turnaround in fortunes at the club this season – especially having sold players who were deemed key assets last summer. 

Credit should go to Moyes and indeed the staff around him, not only for the improved performances but also for the work done in the transfer market. 

Signings such as Vladimir Coufal, Craig Dawson and the loan deal of Jesse Lingard have all played a huge part in what has been a hugely successful 2020/21 campaign. 

Now all that remains is to tie the Scot down to a long-term new contract. 

matchday.
