Slaven Bilic outdoes horny Van Gaal with some sexy football talk of his own

Turns out beating Chelsea is hard. Really hard.

Hot on the heels of Louis van Gaal explaining how he regularly orders his charges to show their “horny” side during games, West Ham United’s Slaven Bilic shared some sexy football talk of his own.

The Claret and Blue Army are erecting something of a late push to stealthily enter next season’s Champions League through the back door, and Bilic certainly doesn’t want their current spurt of good form to end prematurely.

Saturday’s game at Stamford Bridge was a golden opportunity to climb on top of Man City into fourth place with a win, but alas it wasn’t to be, as Cesc Fabregas’ late penalty punished the visitors in a 2-2 draw.

Afterwards, the Hammers manager felt that his team had been far too easy and loose, complaining that they were trying to play too “sexy”.

“We were too sloppy,” explained the amorous ‘ammer. “We tried to play too sexy, not penetrating enough.”

Crikey. Quite how Bilic interprets blowing pretty bubbles is anyone’s guess.
