West Ham legend Mark Noble has joined the list of potential suitors that may replace David Moyes if the Scotsman is dismissed by the Hammers.
The West Ham manager has faced a lot of scrutiny this year, as his side are currently in a relegation dog-fight. Last season was a record-breaking campaign for the Irons, reaching the Europa League semi-final. Optimism was high for supporters but performances this season have failed to meet such lofty expectations.
Fans have made their frustrations very clear through the boos and jeering after every defeat, which has been often this year. Due to the lack of positive results, rumours have started to circulate about potential Moyes replacements.
The list includes, Rafa Benitez, Mauricio Pochettino, and surprisingly former West Ham captain Mark Noble. UK betting sites have priced him at 16/1 to take over his former boss as he looks to take his first-step into professional management.
His experience in management is a direct contrast, as he only stopped playing 10 months ago. He has taken up a Sporting Director role at the club which could be why his odds are at 16/1. However, his love for the club and his current involvement could make for a smooth but risky transition.

The 35-year-old retired from the sport at the end of last season, bringing an end to his 18-year-spell at West Ham. Coming through the academy at the side from East London made Noble a fan favourite and allowed him to make over 500 appearances for the Hammers.
