West Ham’s defense is lacking, and David Moyes’ reputation as a defensive manager is not as impressive as some believe. The team’s ten penalties in a single season raises questions about the level of pressure placed on the team.
West Ham’s defence is leaking, allowing opponents to take shots on goal, a problem not only for penalties but also for European qualification.
Lukasz Fabianski and Alphonse Areola are excellent goalkeepers, but relying solely on them for crucial saves is a risky strategy.

West Ham’s attacking talent, including Antonio, Bowen, and Kudus, makes them a formidable force. Moyes’ adjustments are crucial for their defense, as Leverkusen approaches.
