I hope he wants to push this club on long term, we all know a big club could give him an offer he couldn't refuse.
On the plus side he said we were a club he had always wanted to manager and he had a short term and a long term plan for us.
We can all guess what the short term plan is.
I love watching his touchline passion and hearing his post game interviews.
We could have ended up with Pearson and Shakespeare.
Yes 55, we've had managers who have offered something in one department but Bilic covers the lot in my opinion with the defence being less solid than some but you can't knock being top after 16 games. The test will be as it always is when we hit a poor patch which often happens. So far our poor patch has been two draws in succession. Can't complain!
