BILIC GRAND SLAM BID

- JOE BERNSTEIN

SLAVEN BILIC’S West Ham can complete a rare grand slam by beating Manchester United at Old Trafford tomorrow. Only two clubs have managed to defeat the Premier League’s Big Five — United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester City and Liverpool — in the same season. Ron Atkinson’s Aston Villa did it in the 1992-93 campaign and Leeds United matched them under Howard Wilkinson in 1994-95. West Ham have already beaten the other four but they must win at United with a depleted squad. With Diafra Sakho joining Dimitri Payet and Enner Valencia on Bilic’s lengthenin­g injury list Andy Carroll is set to lead the attack.
