Recently relegated club West Ham United have appointed Big Sam Allardyce as their new manager. The former Blackburn boss, who was sacked 6 months ago, has finally come out of managerial hibernation.
He believes West Ham is "a fantastic club with a great tradition and loyal supporters who deserve to be in the Premier League". He also admits that it is improbable that he'll be able to keep the Hammers' star players like Rob Green, Carton Cole and player of the year, Scott Parker.
Let's see his Mangerial Profile:
Strengths: Experienced and forthright, he is not a man to be messed with. His innovative methods behind the scenes and attention to detail are revolutionary.
Weaknesses: Can be overly physical, stubborn and cynical in his approach to the game.
Career high: Taking Bolton to 6th place in the Premier League in 2004-05.
Career low: His final days at Newcastle as the fans made him a scapegoat for 'boring' football and poor results.
Tactics: Demands his players to adopt a physical approach and favours packing the midfield and playing a direct, rather than short, passing game.
Quotes: ''If there are things saying wrong about Sam Allardyce, believe you me, I will be fighting them.'' Sam Allardyce on Sam Allardyce.
Verdict: We think he has what it takes to get West Ham back into the Premier League- the experience, the player management and the command. Good luck, Sam.
