Rival Watch Thread Watch

Looney Louis will no doubt be making graphs and jotting down stats to prove he's more "sophisticated" than up his own arse Allardyce.


West Ham manager Sam Allardyce says "there is no coach more sophisticated" than him in the Premier League.

Allardyce, 60, has guided the Hammers to eighth place in the top flight before Wednesday's trip to Southampton.

"I don't think there is any coach more sophisticated than me any more," said Allardyce. "That's not trying to criticise any other coaches.

"But there is only Arsene Wenger who has done it longer than me. I'm just as good as everybody at this stage."

Arsenal boss Wenger has been in charge since September 1996, with Allardyce first managing in the Premier League with Bolton in 2001.

Allardyce was under heavy pressure at Upton Park a year ago after a run of bad results and criticism of his style of play, but has turned their fortunes around.

His criticism of Manchester United's "long-ball" tactics in the 1-1 draw at the weekend led to United boss Louis van Gaal defending his style of play with documents in his news conference on Tuesday.

West Ham face another Dutchman on Wednesday in the form of Saints boss Ronald Koeman and Allardyce, who has managed Bolton, Newcastle, Blackburn and West Ham in the Premier League, believes he deserves respect for his record.

Play media
Allardyce said he would be able to take charge of the biggest clubs in Europe.

"I would be more suited to Inter Milan or Real Madrid," he said.

"It wouldn't be a problem for me to manage those clubs because I would win the double or the league every time.

"Give me Manchester United or Chelsea and I would do the same, it wouldn't be a problem."

Yeah, he really needs to shut the **** up now......

Guys a ****ing gimp. 2nd biggest helmet in management after Redknapp.

 

Van Gaal comes across as an utter prick. Do you mean Allardyce though Bodster??

Third place is now our title race. Hopefully West Ham take 3 pts away from Southampton tonight so they stay only 3 pts ahead of us and Burnley can get something against Utd. As for us, we just got to keep on rollin, keep on ballin.

 

That's quite impressive

 

Unlike Joey Barton himself

 

Allardyce was a disciple of lord Buckfast of salford and has always been a prick imo, never forget the ****house pair of ****s ganging up on Rafa.

 

****ing hell, Diego lad. We twatted Spurs last night. Don't let the scoreline fool you.

 

Yes I mean Allardyce

 

League position isn't a mirror of footballing standards, yoonited's route one approach is anti-football.

 

some player go an entire career without getting that many bookings

 

LvG does come off as an utter prick, but if I am honest so do most football managers, Jose included.
Brendan Rodgers, I wanna smack him in the face most of the time.
Nigel Pearson is a ****ing idiot, wife beater looking PoS. Harry Redknapp is a scum bag, I could go on.

Very few managers seem like nice people TO US. They probably much nicer in person.
Except Redknapp and Pearson, who are undoubtedly complete knobs 100% of the time.

 

He annoys me when being interviewed. When listening, he turns his head up so that he is literally looking down his nose at the interviewer

 

He's just taking aim...

 

Well he is from South Armagh.

 

And which 'player' was that?

 

Gary Lineker never got booked

 

Is that it, like?

 

I don't keep records so I have no idea. Ask your reporter mate

 

Deflecting ****hound. You intimated there was only ONE in your initial post on this matter

 

Ah, hadn't noticed that lol
