Arsenal put West Ham boss on the ‘brink’ of getting chairman’s understanding
Arsenal tonked West Ham united 5-1 at the Hammers’ soulless Olympic Stadium – hear the Arsenal fans singing “Is this the Emirates?” – and the tabloids are full of speculation. Is West Ham manager Slaven Bilic soon to be sacked?
“Bilic on the brink,” says the Mirror. “His job is understood to be hanging by a thread.”
“Slaven’s still safe,” counters the Star. “Slaven Bilic is safe at West Ham”, says the paper. “It is understood West Ham’s owners are ready to keep faith with him as they still believe the Croat can turn things around.”
“Bilic’s job is not under any immediate threat,” adds the Mail.
In short: nothing has changed. Bilic is the West Ham manager.
