McClaren could make West Ham Squirm!

So the Wally with the Brolly has been appointed manager of Nottingham Forest. The man who landed the England job ahead of Curbishley and Allardyce now stands in our way of an immediate return to the Prem.

Love him or hate him - and let's face it, we all hate him - McLaren has a pretty good track record as a club manager. His friendship with Ferguson may also land him a quality loanee or two, after Daddy's Boy Darren has first dibs of course. That said, Allardyce and Ferguson are good mates too.

I'm worried about the McLaren appointment personally. It was good news that McLeish walked out on Birmingham but Forest will be leading contenders for promotion next season and I suspect McLaren is a better manager than many of us like to believe. Good news one day, bad news the next. That's West Ham all over!

Well, at least he managed to get Wolfsburg nearly relegated. The same Wolfsburg that were champions back in 2009.

Sam is far better than McLaren could ever dream of being.

Seriously.

No contest.
