Aye, he has. West Ham have got some cracking players and could challenge the top 6 with a better manager imo.
O'SHEA WANTS SUNDERLAND JOB Current interim Republic of Ireland boss and ex-Sunderland captain John O'Shea, whilst speaking on the No Tippy Tappy Football podcast, has said he would 'love' to become manager of Sunderland and also made some comments on our transfer model. WANTS TO BE SUNDERLAND BOSS "When you think I was there for six, seven years. I had an amazing time there and it's an amazing club, it really is. We had an amazing time there and yeah, ultimately I would love to be Sunderland manager." TRANSFER MODEL "It's a tricky one, I spoke to Tony Mowbray when he came into Birmingham about the model they have there with young players. The thing for me is it's a great idea on paper. But you look at Bayer Leverkusen, the first thing Xabi Alonso said was that he needed some experience and he went and got Granit Xhaka. It's almost his first thought, he needs that central, general - take control of things for me. You need a mix, having young players in the team and assets to sell on is brilliant, but the cutthroat nature of winning promotion and then staying in the Premier League... you need a blend."
Definitely was night and day one season to the next. Was he the first person who wanted a playing style throughout the club?
Burnley have been poor this season but still have an outside chance of staying up. Kompany did well to get them up last year and they played some cracking stuff. I’m not surprised that there’s interest in him.
They spent over 20m last season to get promoted mate. Hardlys a tactical genius. Steve Cooper getting Forest promoted though from being in the relegation zone is a different story
