Graham Potter has been given an ultimatum by the West Ham United board, according to a report from the Daily Mail. 

After an embarrassing start to the season with two thrashings and rejections left, right and centre from players, Graham Potter has reportedly been given an ultimatum by David Sullivan and the West Ham board.

Daily Mail journalist Dominic King claims Potter is already under ‘enormous pressure’ to keep his job after suffering a 5-1 home defeat at the hands of London rivals Chelsea. It is expected by a lot of people that Potter will lose his job before the new year.

King has also claimed that Sullivan has told Potter he must oversee an ‘immediate upturn in form to continue into the autumn.’ Some other reports are suggesting he has two matches to save his job.

However, if the board back him with a couple of signings in the last few days of the transfer window, it is widely excepted he will be given the next International break to sort it out and the next two matches after that.

But if we don’t sign a couple of midfielders, which to be honest the majority of the Hammers fanbase aren’t expecting, the two game ultimatum would make sense. If we lose tonight against a likely rotated Wolves side and then go and lose comfortably to Nottingham Forest, he could well get the sack.
