[QUOTE="weasel, post: 550517, member: 14"] I do agree, I hate the traditional football logic of ‘he was a great player so he must be a great manager‘. It’s the same as co-commentators/studio “analysts” 95% of the ex pros have less insight than you would find down the pub. Yet they get paid a fortune, I think Shearer is on 3 or 400kpa to do MOTD. Playing and management/analysis are totally different things. Time to wheel out my old favourite analogy, would you rather have a brain operation from a trained surgeon, or Dave who has had three full frontal lobotomies!? Replace “brain op” with ‘appoint a manager’ etc. and if you are a football Chairman you're passing the contract across the table to Dave and welcoming him onboard. Although, to completely counter my previous points, ehhh Barcelona once appointed a guy called Pep Guardiola. He did ok. [/QUOTE]
