West Ham have struggled in the Premier League this season, echoing the poor form the Hammers endured last season, and there’s a growing concern about the stability of the club in the top-flight.
Sat just a single point above the relegation zone, West Ham are entering a crucial period where they clash with high-flying Liverpool and Watford either side of the international break, before two key tests against fellow strugglers Leicester City and Everton.
Whilst optimism was raised following a 3-2 victory over Tottenham Hotspur in the Carabao Cup last week, the Hammers came crashing back down to reality on Saturday after they threw away a 2-0 lead to draw 2-2 with Crystal Palace.
The Hammers have been heavily criticised since, including from Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher, and the former Liverpool defender fears that they could go down this season- which sparked a response from fans on social media.
A vast majority of supporters echoed Carragher’s views, clearly concerned with the condition of their side.

Listened to @Carra23 @GNev2 last night talking West Ham couldn’t disagree with them especially the bit ‘the clubs a bit of a shambles’

I hope @davidgold and Sullivan were watching #MNF last night and see @Carra23 coating West Ham. It’s what we all see. Serious trouble ahead.

@Carra23 got it spot on during @SkySportsMNF. West Ham are showing signs like QPR, Sunderland & Villa when they got relegated. Embarrassing
