BFS is back – almost a given when a West Ham manager finds himself in a spot of bother!
He just seems unable to constrain himself. With Pellegrini feeling heat from the Hammers fans for the first time, the out of work ex England (indeed, near everywhere) former boss is out of his seat and regaling us all with his unnecessary comments.
He really does need to get over himself and demonstrate that he is not as predictable with his punditry as he was when sorting out his “respect the point” tactics.
A mate of David Moyes’, he was pretty quick to make sure his out of work pal got a mention as he launched into the issues surrounding Pelle and West Ham at the moment.
Thankfully he decided to leave comments about baiting the fans to one side unlike on a previous recent occasion given his ear cocking nonsense whilst boss at the club
“He’s not fashionable for the fans, Moyesy,” said Allardyce when Ian Abrahams claimed that he was surprised Pellegrini replaced David Moyes, as shown via talkSPORT’s official Twitter account on Tuesday morning.
“Because supporters have been brainwashed by foreign coaches being much better than British coaches. There’s been a continuous 10-12 year battering of British coaches.
“You hear about how foreign coaches are much better but, in the end, it’s how good your players are and when you’ve got good players, you’re a good manager.
“The proof about Pellegrini is the fact that when he’s at Manchester City, with the best team, he wins the league.
“And then when he comes to West Ham and hasn’t got the best team he finds it – and we all find it – a little bit more difficult.”
Sad that he should find such criticism of another manager necessary but then this is Big Fat Sam we’re talking about!
Er ..He is asked for his opinion on a radio show and gives it like most pundits ex players etc.what’s the problem with that ?
It’s no different to this website given their opinion on the last few weeks !!!
I dont think that BFS ever had much class – but Harry made a similar point at the time of Pelle’s appointment saying “Why didnt they give it to Stuart Pearce”
A quick look at the league table (so i might have got it wrong) suggests that there are a total of 9 British managers in the PL – and of those 6 are currently in the top half of the table – I think that familiarity with the PL is more important than the nationality of the manager
Just a sad stat and I am not a ‘stato’.but I think BFS is the only England manager with a 100% record…played 1..won 1. Flipping gives you so much faith and encouragement in the English /British management set up eh..😕😕
