AFTER yet another scintillating display at The Academy today, this time against mighty Sunderland, I thought it was time I paid BS the full respect he deserves. On reflection, I may have been a tad harsh on him in the past, as many have been quick to point out.
After all, he has enjoyed the considerable backing of many thousands of Hammers supporters for the best part of three years – and, surely, they can’t have all been wrong. It must be me who has been missing the point, failing to appreciate his genius.
So, without the statistical input of any of the eight (yes, EIGHT) full-time data analysts the club now employs to filter a plethora of crucial information to our esteemed coach, I’m now going to analyse in minute detail his immense contribution to West Ham United (and, indeed, football as a whole), in terms of tactical acumen and purveyor of high entertainment . . .
