Quinn31 Posted January 10, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 Bundesliga has a ton of sub 45 managers - definitely a place to look for young managers who also have big club experience Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quinn31 Posted February 4, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2018 Niko Kovac at Eintracht Frankfurt is doing an excellent job - has them in 6th, and I don't believe they usually fight for Europe in the division - Managed Croatia and also comes from the RB Salzburg set up, a place renowned for developing youth talent. Lots of talented coaches in Germany. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quinn31 Posted May 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2018 Stoke appoint Gary Rowett, well done. Did a great job at both Birmingham and Derby. Think he's as likely as any to get them back up, and I think that if I were a manager, Peter Coates and that management would absolutely be somebody I'd like to work for given their track record (Not sacking the manager, willingness to spend some). Graham Potter rumored to Swansea as well as Chris Coleman. Even Frank De Boer and Jaap Stam's names are being mentioned. Much tougher club to jump into in its current state. WHU appoint Pellegrini. I would think he's a better pick than a lot of previous West Ham managers, but think his best days are in the past. Arsenal get Unai Emery - Think he's a good manager but sounds like he's not going to get much to spend for a squad that desperately needs bolstering at defensive mid and the back.

In a nutshell, he's never slated the clubs he's worked at and always acted like they are doing him a favor just keeping him on staff. Happy to work with little to nothing in transfers while his main assets are sold year in/out (see sevilla and valencia). sounds like a perfect fit for Kroenke ran Arsenal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen things from him on the pitch... in interviews and as a pundit that makes me believe he will be a success. Talks very well, handled players like drogba and dicanio trying to take the ball off him for penalties. By all accounts his peers at BT and production staff rate him highly - consumate professional. I think I heard him taking strips off a journalist once who brought his children into a piece... he rang them up on air and handed their arses to them. There's much more to football management but I think he will have the intelligence/man management side sorted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have liked what I have seen/heard from him since he hung up his boots but then again I thought the same as Neville and look how that went!

There's much more to football management but I think he will have the intelligence/man management side sorted. That’s nice and all but he’s done absolutely nothing anywhere. Being a good talker on the tv and having a go at a journalist are hardly key aspects of being a successful manager. That being said I actually like him and hope he does well.

Yeah... football management is impossible in a toxic environment unless you have the power to change it quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c1982 Posted June 1, 2018 Report Share Posted June 1, 2018 I think Lampard will do alright - his dad and uncle will be vital links for him for advice etc. He’s not rushed into it like many other ex-players and in Derby, he’s got a great job - decent team already with top facilities. If Lampard can pull a few strings e.g loans from Chelsea etc. I think he’ll do well in what will be a very competitive league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
