West Ham United legend Tony Cottee has called on the club to sack Avram Grant immediately.
Cottee is urging the club to bring in a new boss before the January transfer window.
"It's the time to do it. If you're going to do it you've got to do it in conjunction with the January window," Cottee told talkSPORT.
"They're bottom of the league, they haven't won away from home for 27 games I think it is now, and all the West Ham fans just expect to go down at the moment.
"Something's got to happen, they've got to change something or other and the only change they can make really is replacing the manager.
"They've got some tough games, Fulham away, then they're home to a team in form in Everton, then they're home to Wolves, which is a massive game, followed by Newcastle away and Arsenal at home so the games don't get any easier.
"If you're going to change the manager change him now, at the start of January, and get the new manager in place and give him some money."
