Zola "shocked" as Hammers axe finally falls
Gianfrance Zola is said to have been left "shocked" after being sacked by
West Ham despite guiding the club to Premier League survival.

Gianfranco Zola applauds the Hammers fans after his final game
Zola's contract was terminated following a meeting with Hammers managing
director Karren Brady on Tuesday morning, and the club will now be looking to
make a quick appointment, according to co-owner David Sullivan.
Sullivan exclusively told Soccernet: "We hope to have in place within three
weeks an experienced manager. We will study people's past records to find a
manager with a proven track record."
Mark Hughes, Avram Grant and Slaven Bilic are the favourites to replace him
in the Upton Park hotseat, while highly-rated Real Mallorca manager Gregorio
Manzano is also in contention after guiding the unfancied club to the brink
of Champions League qualification,and Martin Jol is also being considered.
After leading West Ham to their lowest ever Premier League points total and
on the back of a series of rows with co-owners David Gold and Sullivan, it
had seemed to be a case of 'when' not 'if' he would be sacked and a statement
on the West Ham website confirmed the inevitable.
"West Ham United confirm that they have terminated the contract of Gianfranco
Zola," a statement read. "The board of directors would like to thank him for
his contribution and wish him well for the future. The club will now be
focusing its efforts on seeking a replacement. The club will be making no
further comment on this matter."
Hughes and Portsmouth boss Grant - who has performed a minor miracle in
leading Pompey to the FA Cup final - are thought to be high on the shortlist
to replace Zola, who was dismissed after a showdown meeting with Brady.
Sullivan and Gold have always thought of Hughes as the number one choice, but
they will want to take their time and would like to interview a full
shortlist of candidates before making up their minds.
Hughes has indicated his willingness to hold out for a big job, and is
thought to be keen to replace Rafael Benitez at Liverpool, but it might turn
out that his best offer for a return to the Premier League arrives at the
door of Upton Park.
The co-owners wanted Hughes when they took control in January but Hughes
indicated that he was still biding his time, and his wage demands would make
him one of the top managerial earners after his spell with mega-wealthy
Manchester City.
