Former West Ham United winger Dale Gordon says manager David Moyes is the right man in charge.

Now in charge of his own junior football academy in Dubai, Gordon spoke to whufc.com about the Scot.

He said: “I still keep an eye on all the teams I played for and their results, especially lately when Slaven Bilic was the manager, as I was at the Club as a player with him.

“Focusing on this season, even though they had a tough start and a change of manager, David Moyes has settled the team and brought back the confidence in the group, and players who have great ability have now showed their true potential to help them climb the table.

“I think they will survive this season and, with David Moyes and good summer in the transfer market, they do need to push on next season and a maybe a good cup run will give the west ham supporters some welcome cheer after a couple of inconsistent seasons."
