Yes, his hubris was unrivalled. Yes, he was always getting his win ratio out and waving it around.

Take the time he thought a reporter had told him a dick joke after the game. Classic Sherwood right there.

We will probably never see his kind again in football again.
But the sport's loss is punditry's gain and even though we don't have the luxury of being able to watch him week out in the managerial hot-seat of a football club on a weekly basis, someone has given him a mic and stuck him in front of a camera.
Of course it was going to be great. How could it not be?

But it must have slipped his mind that he wasn't down the pub with the lads and he was in fact doing a live segment on Sky Sports, when he casually dropped in the word 'arse' to his analysis.

It didn't go unnoticed on Twitter either, and some people even thought he'd dropped an earlier clanger on the show too..
