Sam Allardyce known as "Big Sam", is an English football manager and former professional player, who is currently the manager at Premier League club Everton. Sam Allardyce have set a new record by be the manager of seven clubs in the Premier league. He has 511 matches in the Premier league, 174 wins, 138 draws and 199 losses. In my experience of Sam Allardyce i think he is pretty defensively minded coach, he doesn‘t care about about pretty football he likes to play long balls forward and have a big and strong defenders and then quick wingers and then a target man in the box as a striker, that‘s my experience of Big Sam.
Sam Allardyce started coaching Limerick but also as a player the year 1991-1992 for exactly one year. In July 1994 he started managing his first team which was Blackpool who where playing in the Second Division. Blackpool finished 12th in the league in his first season. Allardyce was fired after losing to Bradford in the semi finals play offs later on.
Then in January 1997 Sam Allardyce was hired as Notts County manager. The first half of his first season did not start well, but he was able to win the third divison in England in 1998 with Notts County. They got promoted to the second divison in real fashion winning the leauge with 99 points.
Because of his succesfull spell at Notts County Sam Allardyce got a job as a manager at Bolton Wandereres. In his second season he got Bolton promoted to the premier league, he made Bolton a team which belonged in the premier leauge at that time. Then Allardyce got Bolton in a European qualification for the first time in the club's history.
The next stop for Sam Allardyce was Newcastle but that didn‘t last for long. Big Sam only managed Newcastle for 24 games as the results weren‘t good enough and a new owner Mike Ashley decided to fire Sam Allardyce straight away and hire Kevin Keegan instead.
Then in december 2008 Sam Allardyce Blackburn Rovers hired Sam Allardyce as their manager. When Sam came to Blackburn they were in relegation zone in the premier league, but Big Sam got Blackburn to finish in the 15th in the premier leauge. The year after that finished 10th in the premier leauge but got into some altercations with the owner of Blackburn Venky and Sam got fired in december 2010.
In june 2011 when West Ham got relegated Sam Allardyce got hired as a manager. West Ham went straight up to the premier league under Sam Allardyce wing. His defensive and long balls forward did not please the fans but West Ham managed to always finish in 10th, 13th and 12th places in league. In may 2015 Allardyce and West Ham split up.
Allardyce got back on the horse and was hired as a manager of Sunderland. Yet again Sam pulled a magnificent save for Sunderland as he came and saved them from relegation.
Then Sam Allardyce took over the English national team and blew that up as we all now.
Now Allardyce is the manager of Everton and has a contract until june 2019 but the supporters of Everton want‘s him out and it‘s not likely he will keep his job.
