West Ham fans have endured a difficult last 18 months since moving to the London Stadium, with the Hammers struggling for stability last season and now hovering just a single point above the relegation zone.
Slaven Bilic’s position as manager is under severe threat and he could find himself out of a job over the course of the international break, as West Ham may occupy a place in the drop zone if results this weekend go against them.
A large majority of fans have certainly had enough with Bilic, particularly as he continues to overlook young talent- with the most recent player being consistently overlooked standing as striker Toni Martinez.
The 20-year-old has scored 11 goals for the U23 side this season, a significantly larger amount than any player in the first-team, but hasn’t even made the bench in recent weeks- and fans are furious.
Responding on social media to a tweet from the club that shared Martinez’s goals this season, they once again ignited their calls for him to get an opportunity.
