Lusitanos coach: 'Disrespectful Slaven Bilic thinks that he is Jose Mourinho'

Lusitanos boss Xavi Roura hits out at 'disrespectful' West Ham coach Slaven Bilic for watching his side's 3-0 Europa League win from the stands rather than the dugout.

Lusitanos manager Xavi Roura has slammed West Ham United counterpart Slaven Bilic for showing him a "lack of respect" in the 3-0 Europa League defeat to the Hammers.

Diafra Sakho scored twice as the Irons secured a first-leg advantage over the Andorran minnows in a game that saw Bilic watch on from the stands rather than the dugout last night.

The 46-year-old, who was presented at Upton Park before kickoff, instead left academy director Terry Westley in charge, having earlier returned from a trip to Ireland.

"Slaven Bilic showed a lack of respect by not being on the bench," Roura is quoted as saying by Sky Sports News. "It does make me sad, in a country where fair play was invented that something like this could happen.

"I think he must have thought our team was not important for him to be present. I imagine that he has won many titles and maybe he thought he was the 'Special One'. The minimum thing I can hope for is that the club like West Ham - this won't happen again.

"I think he is the West Ham coach so I expected him to be on the bench. Slaven Bilic, 'The Special One' should come to Andorra."

The sides will contest the second leg of the tie in Andorra next Thursday.
