West Ham's defeat against Arsenal last week in the London derby practically left the door open for Manuel Pellegrini's exit. The club are already thinking about a replacement and, although it is very unlikely, one of the candidates is Mauricio Pochettino.
The Hammers are not amongst the best teams in the Premier League, but the team's financial potential could be one of the main reasons to try to sign the Argentine.
According to the 'Daily Star', West Ham will have the former Tottenham coach in mind to manage their team, although they are aware that this option is practically impossible due to their sporting situation.
The London team are facing relegation, they are only one point above Southampton, the team who are in the most danger. The Chilean's exit could happen at any time if they fail to get three points at home in their next game against the 'Saints'.
