West Ham have sacked Graham Potter after a disastrous start to the Premier League season.

Potter took charge in January but won just six league games, with just two of them coming at the London Stadium.

He leaves with the club languishing in the relegation zone.

What went wrong?

In the 15 years Karren Brady and David Sullivan have been at the helm, West Ham have seen 10 managers come and go, including David Moyes’ two stints. Contrast that to a previous record of 11 managers in 110 years.

Potter arrived midway through the winter transfer window and in his first – and only – summer West Ham spent £125m on new recruits. Yet they were stung badly by the sale of Mohammed Kudus to Tottenham for well below his release clause and new arrivals struggled to bed in.
