I also can't see the players not doing as he says.
He looks like a real tough cookie and he is just what we need on the sideline during games.
I can imagine also any player slacking at all will get a little bit of a telling off. I think he has the mentality that we need as a club to fight in and win games.
Speaking an hour before the appointment was made, he said: “Slaven looks like he’s going to be the new boss there.
“He knows the club well and I think he’ll bring back one or two of the old players to work with him on the coaching side.
“So it’s an opportunity for one or two lads he played with to do some specialist coaching and work with him in his backroom team. So all in all I think it’s a good signing.”

Julian Dicks maybe, will we need a striker coach again.
Ich bin ein Boleyner!
Du bist Boleyner!
Wir sind Boleyner!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
;biggrin
I need cheering up right now, I have every confidence that you'll deliver!
Make me happy ;wahoo
Although I'm a bit alarmed by the news that he's now going on holiday and will be back later in the month. ;puzzled
What about our transfers? Is it all being left to Sully, and young Jack once school breaks up? ;puzzled
;whistle
The first year, new squad, jelling the players, different approach, Europa plus the pressure of the last season at the OS.
If it's a total disaster (I don't think it will be) then that could be different.
3m a year......twice the basic the previous manager was on but no payoff if relegated (good). That's raised the bar a little and we could have the genuine 13th highest paid manager in the world.
Good luck and welcome back Slaven!
coyi
Maybe we have a coach and not a manger, regarding transfers...
Do we know when the squad has to return to training???
I assume Valencia will get an extension due to his international games.
It's looking a bit like that. Presumably Sully has always been angling for more power in that direction ;hmm
Squad reports back Monday 22 June. (I too expect those involved in summer tournaments will have an extended break.)
It hasn't started yet!
Twist: "Awful, simply awful"
m-h: "Teflon will probably claim we dominated the game and created dozens of chances"
Hutton: "I cannot believe how a side can consistently go out and play with such little passion game in game out. Year after year it's the same with West Ham, it never changes no matter who manages the club"
luke: "3 wins in 21. Can someone please tell Downing he's allowed to tackle or he can leave the club as far as I an concerned"
yeold: "we're not safe yet"
etc, etc
I am sure we will get passion and fight with Bilic at the helm.
He scares me , so I am sure the players will make sure they start playing well consistently or they will not play .
We must not see any more lacklustre performances that we saw in the second half of the season.
That's what I want to see passion with a bit of skill. We know we might not win every game but I want us to play as if we think we can . In too many games we let the opposition dominate us , it would be nice for it to be the other way round .
