Forest ease relegation fear and add pressure on Moyes
At the City Ground, West Ham supporters exhibited a banner that read 'Moyes Out' in the away section.
Nottingham Forest earned a well-deserved win at the City Ground, which propelled them five points ahead of the Premier League relegation zone. This defeat for West Ham United increased the pressure on their manager, David Moyes.
Before the first half ended, Taiwo Awoniyi scored the first goal for the hosts and in the extra time, Callum Hudson-Odoi secured the victory by scoring in three successive games.
During the second half of the match, Kalvin Phillips, who was on loan and playing as midfielder, received two yellow cards in just three minutes. This made his performance for West Ham yet another game to forget.
The Forest team climbed to the 15th position in the rankings. However, Moyes' team failed to recover from their 6-0 loss to Arsenal last week, which resulted in them maintaining their position in eighth place.
The team led by Nuno Espirito Santo entered the match after losing six out of their last seven home games. However, they seized the opportunity to face a West Ham team that was humbled by their defeat last weekend.
The forward player Michail Antonio commenced in the starting lineup for the initial time since mid-November, but the team had difficulty generating any apparent goal opportunities.
Following Phillips' sudden departure, Forest persisted in their quest for another goal but were thwarted in their attempt to secure one via a penalty, as they believed Maxwel Cornet had accidentally stepped on Neco Williams' ankle.
In the 90th minute, Danilo took a strong shot that slipped past Alphonse Areola, but the referee Tom Bramall decided to overlook this mistake. Unfortunately, Ryan Yates was declared to have been in an offside position.
Moyes Is Feeling The Heat
David Moyes may have guided West Ham to a European title and positioned them in an honourable eighth place in the league last year, but they are not satisfied with him according to the Hammers supporters.
Last Sunday, during halftime of the game, there were many empty seats at The London Stadium. Arsenal was leading by a score of 4-0, and they had two more goals to come.
West Ham supporters journeyed to the City Ground with the expectation of an improved performance. However, the team's efforts were lackluster at best, and an emblem expressing a desire for the imminent dismissal of the manager could be glimpsed from the section designated for visiting fans.
After the match, Moyes was questioned about the banner and suggested that supporters of West Ham should ponder on the team's advancements over the last three years.
I'm feeling quite let down by the fact that we didn't achieve success today and also by a few other outcomes. Nevertheless, it's important to keep in mind that we had some favourable results and victories during this season.
We are currently in a favorable position compared to last season when we were towards the lower end of the league. It wasn't too long ago that we were known as Nottingham Forest and were in a serious battle against relegation. However, we have made significant progress and are far ahead of where we were back then.
Displeased supporters of West Ham United are being asked, "What else could you ask for?" However, it must be acknowledged that their team has suffered three consecutive losses and failed to score a goal in any of these matches.
Moyes is facing a major setback due to Lucas Paqueta not being available, but supporters of the Hammers team will indicate that the squad is more powerful than the majority of squads the club has had, and that Moyes needs to take advantage of it more.
An experienced manager will understand the importance of winning the upcoming match against Brentford when playing at home. Losing is not an option.
Hudson-Odoi In Sensational Form
Hudson-Odoi appeared on the field with Chelsea for the first time in 2017. After that, he was considered one of the most promising players in the Premier League and Bayern Munich's attention towards him was an indication of his impressive talent.
He played his first-ever match for England against Montenegro in March 2019, but unfortunately injured his Achilles tendon the next month which hindered his growth.
The Forest team had not been using the services of the 23-year-old player regularly since he joined them in the summer. However, the forward appears to be thriving under the leadership of new Forest manager Nuno, as he scored his third goal in a row during their match against West Ham. This indicates that he is happy with his current situation within the team.
Forest will have an excellent attacking trio that many teams in the bottom half of the table would be jealous of if Hudson-Odoi can keep up this level of performance. This trio will consist of the high-performing Awoniyi, talented playmaker Gibbs-White, and Hudson-Odoi himself.
Awoniyi was substituted due to an injury. If he is out of play for a while, the team Forest may rely on the skilled Hudson-Odoi to score goals and maintain their position in the top league.
