Nuno fights to drag West Ham out of the relegation zone
West Ham's season has been a disaster from the opening day, when they lost 3-0 at newly promoted Sunderland before being humiliated 5-1 by Chelsea in their first home match. Graham Potter was sacked in September after a dismal start, and Nuno Espirito Santo inherited a squad in freefall. At one point, supercomputer models gave West Ham an 89 percent chance of relegation, but a recent run of improved results, including wins over Tottenham and Sunderland, has offered a lifeline. A 1-1 draw at Manchester City on the final day of the latest round briefly lifted them out of the bottom three.
