LONDON (AP) – Discarded for not being the “high-caliber” manager desired by West Ham, David Moyes was brought back by the east London club on Sunday for a second spell in charge.
Premier League survival was Moyes' mission two seasons ago, and that's the manager's job again.
Only this time, rather than a six-month contract, Moyes has secured an 18-month deal to succeed Manuel Pellegrini.
The Chilean lost his job on Saturday, with West Ham only a place and a point above the relegation zone after a loss to Leicester.
"I’ll be looking to see what I can do and what I can make improvements to, how we can get some wins with the players and how we can get some quick wins on the field as well," Moyes said.
