West Ham management seek squad opinion on Pellegrini

West Ham management are seeking the players’ opinion of  manager Manuel Pellegrini as they consider swinging the axe.

The Daily Mail says the Chilean’s position as head coach  is under threat following Monday’s 3-1 home defeat by
Arsenal — a result that leaves West Ham one point above  the Premier League relegation zone.

It is understood the club’s hierarchy, including co-owners David Sullivan and David Gold, discussed
Pellegrini’s future on Tuesday as they consider making a change.

Saturday’s showdown against struggling Southampton will be key to Pellegrini’s future and defeat could signal the end of his reign at the London Stadium.
