Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand thinks it was \u201cmad\u201d that David Moyes was linked with the sack at West Ham United. <\/p>\n

The former Red Devils\u2019 manager ended the Hammers\u2019 43-year wait for a major trophy by winning the Europa Conference League last season. While some sneered at the newest competition in UEFA, it also helped the East Londoners qualify for the Europa League.<\/p>\n

Their recent 4-1 away defeat to Aston Villa has knocked the mood slightly, but West Ham have enjoyed a strong start to the season which currently sees them reside in ninth position in the Premier League. Considering the joy their European campaign brought to the fans, Ferdinand, who is a pundit for TNT Sport, is still aghast some were calling for the Scotsman\u2019s head in the summer.<\/p>\n

"It's mad, isn\u2019t it? He won the Europa Conference League and some were saying \u2018oh, he should be sacked\u2019 – I couldn't believe it,\u201d Ferdinand said on behalf of TNT Sports<\/u> <\/i> the exclusive home of the UEFA Champions League, Europa League, and Europa Conference League.<\/i><\/p>\n

"I saw debates online and I was thinking: 'Wow, I've never known a man to win something, a trophy, especially an European trophy and then people talk about 'Oh, should he or shouldn't he even be in the job?' I think he's done remarkably well.\u201d<\/p>\n

Moyes takes his side to Greece to face a dangerous Olympiacos side in the Europa League. The Hammers are currently enjoying a 17 match unbeaten streak in European competitions, the longest run any English side has put together in history.<\/p>\n

In a small space of time, Moyes has gone from a man seemingly destined for the boot to someone who has even been touted as a potential option for some of the biggest clubs in England. Despite his tumultuous nine-month reign at United, Ferdinand thinks he should not be ashamed of his short stint at United. <\/p>\n

\u201cI think it was a poison chalice going to Man United at that time,\u201d Ferdinand added. \u201cBigger reputations have failed at the club, post David Moyes. I don't think it's anything to be ashamed of what he went in and done there.<\/p>\n

"Would he probably do it differently? I think most people, when they've not completed something or not been as successful as anticipated would go, \u2018Yes, I could do something different\u2019. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

"I think he's got a tough job at West Ham. I think it's a hard job there. I think it's a big job. I don't look at West Ham as a small club. It's a big job, London club. He's achieved things there that no managers have, Harry Redknapp did not even achieve that.<\/p>\n

"He is looked at like a big, big figure at West Ham as he's won a trophy. He got West Ham doing an open top bus parade. So I think he'd be happy where he is at the moment.\u201d<\/p>\n

"If a big job comes up, should he get it up there? There's so many people fighting for them.\u201d<\/p>\n
