that's an interesting fact. but i know people who are coaches and referees etc in England at lower levels and they couldn't make a living by that profession alone. so they often have to choose with a pie in the sky dream of being a football coach or get a job that will pay the bills. and lets not forget how underappreciated coaches and referees are in lower level football in the UK.... but you are right when countries strive to be the best at something it has to be done from an early age and develop people into those roles. countries with the best engineers etc have high levels of STEM graduates, this is because their education systems and society looks up on STEM as the future so people want to do it and they can make a good living do it.
The British managers culture is all based on fear of losing rather than trying to win the game allardyce, Moyes, dyche, Southgate the list goes on all I can say is at least some of the younger managers are trying to be entertaining howe and Carrick whether they will be given the time to aspire to greatness is something else
Well, you think that an english manager would get given the Bayern Munich job the way Kompany is? Eddie Howe isn't being chased by Bayern despite playing some of the best football in the league with Bournemouth and then Newcastle. Harry Redknapp used to have sides that played pretty football, never even got the england job, the best opportunity he got as a manager was bloody spurs, who he still took into the Champion's League knockouts.
The Premier League has been won by by: 2 Scottish managers 1 Portuguese manager 1 French manager 1 Chilean manager 1 Spanish manager 1 German manager (All with the same single club). 4 Italian managers (Four different clubs) 0 English managers
Brian Clough was a football genius! won 2 European Cups with Nottingham Forest and he should have been the England Manager in the 70s, but the ignorant FA didn't appoint him because he was too outspoken. 😠
I guess you conveniently missed Paisley,Fagan and Revie.And obviously can't follow a simple convo that expanded from Souness's explanation of why Paisley and Fagan couldn't/wouldn't manage in todays game
Still no English manager has won the Premier League. Last English manager to win the top division league tittle was Howard Wilkinson back in 1992. Dosent look like changing anytime soon.
Agreed, Howe and Potter were supposed to be the biggest hopes but they've both turned out to be mediocre at financially backed clubs. People speak negatitvely about Pep etc saying they couldn't win without being at a top club but he's at a top club because it takes a certain type of manager to be there.

Sir Bobby coached Sporting and Porto and is loved here in Portugal. Humble, funny and just a lovely man. Souness who coached Benfica on the other hand.
continental managers know that management is an art not a science. they appreciate how important emotion and psychology is and use this to get the best out of their teams. then you add the technical and physical side on top, focusing on things like fluidity and creativity, and generous dose of charisma. english managers are typically close-minded, lack creativity and have little charisma, but i think things are very slowly changing. more english players need to play abroad, so when they eventually become managers they appreciate alternative ways of approaching the game and are more well-rounded
Is what Arteta showed, you only have to watch the amazon documentary on this. It's why I still say Arsene is better than Pep. And.also why I claim fergie is biggest myth and.fraud. He just had refs and.fa in his pocket. His playing style was just always rough and aggressive, they got away with fouls that way.
The European ban in 1985 took a heavy toll from which English managers never seemed to recover. It's like we went irreversibly backwards in those 5 years during which the continent caught up and the game changed. From 1977 to 1985, 7 different English managers won European trophies, Bob Paisley 3 European cups (and 1 uefa cup) Brian Clough 2, Joe Fagan 1, Tony Barton 1 (with technically ex-manager Ron Saunders who left Villa halfway thru season). Bobby Robson 1 uefa cup, Keith Burkinshaw 1 and Howard Kendall 1 cup winners cup. I think the more continental philosophy taking over and all the rules fitting around how they play or behave on the pitch didn't help at a time when we frowned upon the dark arts of the Italians and Spanish perfected over decades and prided ourselves on our so-called British sense of fair play and mocked those foreign theatrics which are now almost a skilled artform.
Terry Venables and Bobbie Robson both managed Barcelona and England. They were the 2 last great English managers. Kevin Keegan almost did it with Newcastle. Southgate deserves credit however. 1 Semi and 1 Final.
I think you were going in the right direction. The European ban closed off English managers in their own little pool. While the rest of Europe was exchanging ideas and evolving tactically, England stagnated in the old '4-4-2 kick the ball upfield'. It has nothing to do with theatrics. It's tactical and it takes time to change.
@@antoniobrandao7139It helps when a team can employ tactics knowing the ref will give a foul at the slightest contact. It allowed the development of technical coaches and players to operate with more freedom and incorporate 'tactical' use of the rules and stricter officiating to their advantage without being out-muscled and bullied so much . Which benefited the Latin teams who have always been more adept and cute in manipulating officials on the pitch. Not a criticism, it's a skill in itself which they mastered along with the technical skills.

No Graeme. Gerrard, Lampard, Rooney, Hughton, Potter etc have all been given a chance. They're simply not good enough. Arteta's not still in a job because he's Spanish. It's because he's good.

England thinks that great managers are just born (same with players sometimes as well), people don’t give managers time anymore, just look at Eddie Howe, lot of people think NewCastle need a elite manager to win things but people/media aren’t giving people time to become Elite managers.

@@Edwinong87 tbh honest Pep is possibly one of the exceptions, but he is not just a elite manager, he is probably one of the best manager ever to exist
@happyapple4269 hoddle is awful. the way he speaks about the game on champions league commentary is so basic and limited, but he's not any different to the rest. on average, english people just don't understand the game very much.
English football culture needs to change. Even when the best players and managers in the world arrive in England they're treated like nobody's until they've proven they're good enough to beat dross like Burnley and Luton. With less of an island mentality they can produce better managers.
The problem is we have an anti-intellectual culture in this country. Football is mostly played and watched by the kind of lads who used to say you were "gay" at school if you actually did your work. We praise "straight talking" pundits like Roy Keane or Graeme Souness who can't analyse tactics and just moan that players aren't running or tackling hard enough. We treat tactics like some suspicious foreign nonsense. Being an elite football manager is actually not simple. The modern game is tactically complex and you need to be smart and analytical to coach it. So we have to import that knowledge from countries with better footballing cultures.
For me you have to go back to Terry Venables for the last innovative English coach .Shame he only got one tournament to manage England as he was a bit too much for the F.A to handle .
Eddie Howe can potentially win but Newcastle are still trying to recover from the Ashley period. Gonna take another 3-4 years yet to really start competing with the corrupt 6
@@Geohillierneo There is a far greater number of very good Spanish managers than English managers. Just look at the UCL quarter final managers for an example
If British managers didn’t rush themselves to manage such big clubs or chase big money. Instead spent their time working with other managers in the premier league and overseas learning their craft. Maybe the might be more successful
Premier League should be the breeding ground for best English managers who can take the England national team. But how can that be when premier league is dominated by foreign managers with only four of them being english?
The gap between English managers and foreign managers is vast. Graham Potter was a promising manager and got exposed at Chelsea. Eddie Howe is most likely on his way out of Newcastle as he can't get the team to perform. Gerard couldn't have flopped harder, and Emery showed him up big time when he took over at Villa. It's not that English managers aren't being given a chance, it's that they don't take their chances
Most old school managers would struggle in the modern game, not only because of the changes in the game, but also because of the changes behind the scenes, with the sports science departments, and the massive coaching teams, in which i believe there is often at least one guy with his eye on your job in 6 months, where in the past it might've been 6 years or more.
I think a huge part of it is as soon as one has any kinda success at a smaller club we (the public) and the media start saying how great they are and then the pressure piles on and they take big jobs they aren't ready for.
We have some great young snd upcoming manahers; Carrick and McKenna for example. Problem in the PL is were obsessed with the next shiney object from overseas. Id encourage all young/hungry managers to go and get some experience overseas; itll add huge credit to their CV's. Doesn't happen enough unfortunately, nut they're missing out
The problem is, these English managers, did they ever played for or learned from a modern tactician? English managers don’t believe that TACTICS is at least 90% of what it matters. They don’t have a step by step methodic approach. They can’t micromanage every positioning and movements of their players like a chess game. They park the bus. They are boring, direct and defensive. They prefer physical, athletic, hardworking players, rather than skillful, technical, creative players with good teamwork. England fans are risk averse, they reject any modern ideology. They don’t think of taking more risks, playing less defensive capable attacking profile players to outscore their opponents. Instead, they cheer when they make a good tackle.
Englands biggest indictment is that they couldn’t even produce one world class coach from that golden generation they had 15 years ago Rooney, Terry, Beckham, Lampard, Ferdinand, Gerrard, Neville, Cole None of them can do it How Look at France with Deschamps, Germany with Beckenbauer and Klinsmann and don’t need to even talk about Spain cos they flooded with world class minds
It really doesn't help with the English FA deliberately overprice coaching qualifications, restrict the number of coaches that can take the UEFA B and above every year and clubs across the professional sphere deliberately underpay English and other nationality coaches in the system for every single job. Even for academic based roles at football clubs they are paying less than a teacher would get in a mainstream school. It's not that English managers are lazy, it's the very fact that the system does not reward the kind of coaching growth and development we want to see. I know of plenty of coaches who have to work two or three jobs just to get by. That shouldn't be the case when you are coaching at a professional football club. If you want better coaches, change the system to make it more accessible and more rewarding.
Souness lives in his own head, can't understand that styles and tactics change. No wonder he didn't do anything outside of a duopoly dominated league as a manager.
He is clueless😂 “Our people were the best mathematicians in the Stone Age. We could do addition and multiplication. Nothing has changed through the years. Why are our people not the best scientists in the modern world?”
When managing Benfica, Souness released Deco because he thought he didn't have the physicality to become a top player and prefered to bring an old Michael Thomas because he was built like a tractor. There lies part of the problem with English (British) managers in a nutshell. :)
At not one time has 'tactics changed' been an excuse to drop a certain type of person out of a sport. football is not fashion and never before has every team had to conform to the same tactic or else ....like snobs seem to think should happen any decent moment in these modern day chess games come when a team breaks out of their tactic and goes for it. money won those leagues anyway.
@@antoniobrandao7139 And Wenger wanted Zlatan to have a trial.There are numerous cases where players that went on to have a great career were let go,rejected at the outset For the same reasons Souness gave and by managers/coaches of every nationality.Nice try though
English managers won't succeed until they understand that football ain't about your name or former club,you need to evolve and embrace the winning way like Pep,Klopp and Tuchel.English managers still think the Fergie way of coaching is the template for success.
It starts from the top, the FA is full of old dinosaurs who've been in their jobs too long. The FA needs a root branch modernisation. Thats the first issue.
Guys, go watch the Champions league final between Barcelona and Man United - Pep vs Fergie. Apparent Best English side vs Apparent best team. Why was there such a big tactical mismatch in that game with both managers having the same amount of time and prep? One manager even being in the job for less than a year? Which current English coach/manager plays football that takes your breath away? Until you name me one this conversation is pointless.
Typical of the country. English Football had a renaissance when the Premier League began, but it became global. Foreign Players, Foreign Manager, Foreign Owners, and anything English being marginalised. This doesn't necessarily happen in other leagues across Europe.
@@tevildo45the biggest bottler in this list should be gerrard. Took a good Aston villa side into a relegation scrap last season, and the way unai emery turned things has been unbelievable.
@@ayoa.o.9966this hits the issue on the head in my opinion. The reason English managers don't develop is because they don't go abroad to learn their craft. Meanwhile, all the Spanish, French, Italian, German managers are willing to go away to learn their trade. The English have stagnated by choice. Managers from other leagues also put their egos in check and start in lower divisions and work up, like Ancelotti, Conte etc. Meanwhile, in England you have Sol Campbell complaining about not getting Prem offers when he has no managerial CV 😂
What has Fergie and them been doing all those years of dominance and impact and inspiring the league. Couldn't inspire not one coach or style of play over all those decades?
@Adi-Dassler maybe they should try the Fergie way, the jose way, the Wenger way? Why hasn't anyone adopted anything from these guys ? . Arsenal, Brighton, Aston Villa, Tottenham, Brighton all play his style. United have nothing, so they are trying to copy everything City, That's the leagues top 8 clubs. Barring liverpools Gegenpressing employed by klopp, they all play a version of Peps style. English Players will only get technically better, and English coaches will have to develop tactically with the times.
@Adi-Dassler it looks like that now because it's not the English kick and run, rugby football that they're used to. It will take time for the players to develop...It is a shift in English footballing philosophy.
You cannot bring someone on another era and wonder how they would behave. If they have the same character and were born in this era they will blend in with this generation.
Lol the setups by the FAs of other countries are just legit. Take a look at Italy, there’s a defined system that helps former players from Ancelottis and now Rossis to get into coaching.
Graham skirting around the fact the game, and its rules, changed. No longer was it the norm to scythe down opponents and turn the game into a real scrap. When the game required higher levels of thinking and tactics, and the game required more techincal players, the British Isles were just unable to keep up (broadly speaking, minus a few stand outs). The influx of foreign players, coaches, and footballing minds wasn't a fad, it was essential otherwise clubs would be left in the dark ages. Not to slag off a more classicial style, but there is a reason why those teams don't win the league every year.
The problem now is back years ago the English managers were just competing against other British managers. So the foreign managers always probably had the edge, interms of technical coaching & tactically. Also the quality of player was spread through more teams, because only the champions played in the European Cup. Would the best English managers of the last 20 years, win leagues & trophies in the 1960's & 70's? We don't know, but also would the best British managers then be as good starting midtable today? Would they ever get a top team? How would Ferguson done had he joined a midtable team rather than Man Utd? Would he have done enough to get a top job, we'll nevet know. Simon Jordan was spot on about the coaching in general in British Football years ago. All that's happened now is the doors have been opened, to managers & coaches brought up in a better culture.
@@italianplastic23 We don't know that for sure, he wouldn't win things we can say that. He'd play in a way though & build, where he'd probably get a bigger job as Pochettino & Rodgers did.
The problem is we get situations like Eddie Howe gets top4 and Talksport generally lead the “hes their Mark Hughes, they need a big name” Not to say he is elite but the media are just waiting for English managers to fail and dont give them the time to develop/learn before theyre ready to rip them apart

I've always felt its because there's a need for English managers to behave....to be polite, courteous, PR darlings.....when we know some of the best managers are so because they are large personalities, they inspire those around them, and they don't always tow the line. We don't have people like that at that level. Yes, we've had managers like Allardyce, or now Dyche, who are outspoken, but they are lacking the other qualities. We have Southgate, Howe, Potter....managers like that who are far too nice.
Bob paisley, & Joe faggan were men of their time, great men!.. in year to come, 30, 40 years time, people will ask the same question of today's managers... Ynwa
Simple solution: study Italian managers. They’ve been wining in the Prem for years. And I’m not even talking about the big ones. Have a look at Ranieri and Di Matteo.
For me its very simple, there can't be another SAF because the game as moved on beyond pure man management. You need tacticans and hence it comes down to education. How good is the education of coaches in England?
This is why England will struggle to win the WC or Euros, the foreign players help elevate the English players in the domestic league but when it comes to playing for England they get found out. If no English manager is managing a top team in the Premier League, how can they manage the national team with the best England players. Makes no sense. Let Pep manage England and Man City at the same time, change the format so he can do both. England will win everything. Pep will create the system for them to win.
no they don't.......the pool of English players has drastically depleted and what's left has been shoehorned into defensive positions/ water carriers...all the ugly positions which in turn makes ppl think England's style is ugly if you forget about technique and the cloned academized way that player's of today control, receive and pass that yall 'wow at'......only harry kane breaks into a 90's England team. England used to produce 3 or 4 different types of wingers ....same with mids/ strikers....and they are all gone....the assembly line got shut down and all that's allowed to be exist are 'ambassador roll players' like grealish and Henderson. its the equivalent of only having Dennis wise to pick from in the 90s. They replaced English keepers coz they cant play out from back ! ...which 1. they can ....2. you see more errors then ever with todays keepers playing out from back and what's the point of winning if u cant do it yourself
Its partly because, for good or for bad, we decided to sell off the premier league, like we have with london and much of this countries industry. Make of it what you will but that is a large contributor. We dont protect or ‘cradle’ our assets, depending on your perspective
When was the last time you heard Real Barca, the Milans etc come in for an English coach let alone win the PL, old British coaches like souness need to move on with the times.
Funny how he's saying the old school managers would of thrived today when he loses his Y-fronts if managers he dislikes run up and down the touch line...
The Premier League has been Transformed on a weekly, monthly, annual basis by Foreign Players and Foreign Managers. The top 10 managers in Premier League history are foreign, the top goalkeepers, CDM's, wingers and even strikers in Premier League history are also foreign.

Which English managers have the quality to Lead Chelsea Liverpool United Arsenal to win trophies? Zero
If you keep looking backwards you won't go forwards. Why do they spend so much on St. George's Park? Couldn't they identify and train the next crop of English managers there?
How do you train managers ? 🤣🤣🤣 clough and Fergie hardly ever took training, klopp was a very mediocre player and jose was he ever a player ,you either have it or you don't, yes you can be a great coach but it doesn't make you a great manager, there are exceptions of course
Thats a silly thing to s say .. whats the correlation in the best league to English managers.. none!!!!! There's no English tennis player in the top 20 world top 20 players. Nor Golf right now. So to have a couple of managers that are English is an achievement in today game.

Old school English managers were (are) stuck in time. Maybe they don't want to learn with others, maybe they don't think they need to evolve, maybe there's and element of arrogance or just lack of capacity to take the next step. Now with this new generation of English coaches, it is a mystery why they lack quality. Take a look at Lampard/Alonso... both top players, both midfielders, both coached by the best coachs, same generation,... the only difference is that Alonso played in several countries and Lampard didn't. One is terrible, the other seems to be the next big thing.
why is pardew even a pundit when he has barely won a trophy? maybe weak English managers shouldn't be celebrated. Redknapp only won an FA Cup and most of his career was with smaller clubs.
Imagine how empty studios would be with that logic. Nearly everyone that's been involved in the game deserves an opinion on it, just a matter of whether you agree with what they say or not.
So Graham is saying foreign coaches interview better in their second or third language than English managers do in their primary language? Please explain this logic.

There isn't training camps for managers in England like there are in other countries.
Dont forget sir kenny as well! 😂
continental managers know that management is an art not a science. they appreciate how important emotion and psychology is and use this to get the best out of their teams. then you add the technical and physical side on top, focusing on things like fluidity and creativity, and generous dose of charisma. english managers are typically close-minded, lack creativity and have little charisma, but i think things are very slowly changing. more english players need to play abroad, so when they eventually become managers they appreciate alternative ways of approaching the game and are more well-rounded
Is what Arteta showed, you only have to watch the amazon documentary on this.
It's why I still say Arsene is better than Pep. And.also why I claim fergie is biggest myth and.fraud.
He just had refs and.fa in his pocket. His playing style was just always rough and aggressive, they got away with fouls that way.
The European ban in 1985 took a heavy toll from which English managers never seemed to recover. It's like we went irreversibly backwards in those 5 years during which the continent caught up and the game changed. From 1977 to 1985, 7 different English managers won European trophies, Bob Paisley 3 European cups (and 1 uefa cup) Brian Clough 2, Joe Fagan 1, Tony Barton 1 (with technically ex-manager Ron Saunders who left Villa halfway thru season). Bobby Robson 1 uefa cup, Keith Burkinshaw 1 and Howard Kendall 1 cup winners cup.
I think the more continental philosophy taking over and all the rules fitting around how they play or behave on the pitch didn't help at a time when we frowned upon the dark arts of the Italians and Spanish perfected over decades and prided ourselves on our so-called British sense of fair play and mocked those foreign theatrics which are now almost a skilled artform.
Terry Venables and Bobbie Robson both managed Barcelona and England. They were the 2 last great English managers. Kevin Keegan almost did it with Newcastle. Southgate deserves credit however. 1 Semi and 1 Final.
I think you were going in the right direction.
The European ban closed off English managers in their own little pool. While the rest of Europe was exchanging ideas and evolving tactically, England stagnated in the old '4-4-2 kick the ball upfield'. It has nothing to do with theatrics. It's tactical and it takes time to change.
@@antoniobrandao7139It helps when a team can employ tactics knowing the ref will give a foul at the slightest contact. It allowed the development of technical coaches and players to operate with more freedom and incorporate 'tactical' use of the rules and stricter officiating to their advantage without being out-muscled and bullied so much . Which benefited the Latin teams who have always been more adept and cute in manipulating officials on the pitch. Not a criticism, it's a skill in itself which they mastered along with the technical skills.
@@antoniobrandao7139 Liverpool definitely didn't play that style in the late 80s, they were one of the best teams in Europe but banned. They could easily have won a European Cup.
@@AlexOjideagu2 sure. Liverpool and maybe a couple of other teams did play a more evolved kind of football but the archetypical English football at the time was the 'kick and rush' which lingered until the 90s save some exceptions.

No Graeme. Gerrard, Lampard, Rooney, Hughton, Potter etc have all been given a chance. They're simply not good enough. Arteta's not still in a job because he's Spanish. It's because he's good. See if Jim Radcliff hires an Englishman at Man U just because. Maybe English players who want to become Managers should take a leaf from the foreign Managers and see how they do it. The same way English players are going on the continent to play for non-English teams.

you cant hold them as representations of all English managers
England thinks that great managers are just born (same with players sometimes as well), people don’t give managers time anymore, just look at Eddie Howe, lot of people think NewCastle need a elite manager to win things but people/media aren’t giving people time to become Elite managers. How can someone become elite if you try and replace them every week/season

Simon is right.
Hoddle was very good its a shame he didnt get another crack at it.

Hoddle was Okay he said stuff that media pcs hates, although tbh Hoddle shouldn't have said it.
English football culture needs to change. Even when the best players and managers in the world arrive in England they're treated like nobody's until they've proven they're good enough to beat dross like Burnley and Luton. With less of an island mentality they can produce better managers.
The problem is we have an anti-intellectual culture in this country. Football is mostly played and watched by the kind of lads who used to say you were "gay" at school if you actually did your work. We praise "straight talking" pundits like Roy Keane or Graeme Souness who can't analyse tactics and just moan that players aren't running or tackling hard enough. We treat tactics like some suspicious foreign nonsense. Being an elite football manager is actually not simple. The modern game is tactically complex and you need to be smart and analytical to coach it. So we have to import that knowledge from countries with better footballing cultures.
@@ravecrab Agreed. I think that is changing a bit but the change is quite slow.
For me you have to go back to Terry Venables for the last innovative English coach .Shame he only got one tournament to manage England as he was a bit too much for the F.A to handle .
Eddie Howe can potentially win but Newcastle are still trying to recover from the Ashley period. Gonna take another 3-4 years yet to really start competing with the corrupt 6
Great points, good discussion.
Mark Robins is very good, Ian Evatt and other's their ignored by the media and owners
Spain just produce the best managers plain and simple. It's not because of them being the fashionable choice of the moment
NO it's because the Spanish FA invested heavily in the development of young coaches. If you invest well you will see the benefits
Apart from Pep, I'm struggling to think of too many TOP successful Spanish managers...?
@@Geohillierneo Currently you have Unai Emery, Xabi Alonso, Luis Enrique, Pep and Arteta doing very well

If British managers didn’t rush themselves to manage such big clubs or chase big money. Instead spent their time working with other managers in the premier league and overseas learning their craft. Maybe the might be more successful
Will never be another Sir Bobby. Pep & Jose learnt from him at barca among others. Class.
Premier League should be the breeding ground for best English managers who can take the England national team. But how can that be when premier league is dominated by foreign managers with only four of them being english?
The gap between English managers and foreign managers is vast. Graham Potter was a promising manager and got exposed at Chelsea. Eddie Howe is most likely on his way out of Newcastle as he can't get the team to perform. Gerard couldn't have flopped harder, and Emery showed him up big time when he took over at Villa. It's not that English managers aren't being given a chance, it's that they don't take their chances
Most old school managers would struggle in the modern game, not only because of the changes in the game, but also because of the changes behind the scenes, with the sports science departments, and the massive coaching teams, in which i believe there is often at least one guy with his eye on your job in 6 months, where in the past it might've been 6 years or more.
I think a huge part of it is as soon as one has any kinda success at a smaller club we (the public) and the media start saying how great they are and then the pressure piles on and they take big jobs they aren't ready for.
We have some great young snd upcoming manahers; Carrick and McKenna for example.
Problem in the PL is were obsessed with the next shiney object from overseas.
Id encourage all young/hungry managers to go and get some experience overseas; itll add huge credit to their CV's. Doesn't happen enough unfortunately, nut they're missing out
The problem is, these English managers, did they ever played for or learned from a modern tactician?
English managers don’t believe that TACTICS is at least 90% of what it matters.
They don’t have a step by step methodic approach. They can’t micromanage every positioning and movements of their players like a chess game.
They park the bus. They are boring, direct and defensive.
They prefer physical, athletic, hardworking players, rather than skillful, technical, creative players with good teamwork.
England fans are risk averse, they reject any modern ideology. They don’t think of taking more risks, playing less defensive capable attacking profile players to outscore their opponents. Instead, they cheer when they make a good tackle.
Carrick the bottle job at middlesborough😂😂😂😂
So weird how Simon slips between saying he’s so patriotic and will blindly back his country to always slagging off English managers.
Englands biggest indictment is that they couldn’t even produce one world class coach from that golden generation they had 15 years ago
Rooney, Terry, Beckham, Lampard, Ferdinand, Gerrard, Neville, Cole
None of them can do it
How
Look at France with Deschamps, Germany with Beckenbauer and Klinsmann and don’t need to even talk about Spain cos they flooded with world class minds
It really doesn't help with the English FA deliberately overprice coaching qualifications, restrict the number of coaches that can take the UEFA B and above every year and clubs across the professional sphere deliberately underpay English and other nationality coaches in the system for every single job. Even for academic based roles at football clubs they are paying less than a teacher would get in a mainstream school.
It's not that English managers are lazy, it's the very fact that the system does not reward the kind of coaching growth and development we want to see. I know of plenty of coaches who have to work two or three jobs just to get by. That shouldn't be the case when you are coaching at a professional football club.
If you want better coaches, change the system to make it more accessible and more rewarding.
Souness lives in his own head, can't understand that styles and tactics change. No wonder he didn't do anything outside of a duopoly dominated league as a manager.
He is clueless😂
“Our people were the best mathematicians in the Stone Age. We could do addition and multiplication. Nothing has changed through the years. Why are our people not the best scientists in the modern world?”
What did he say that suggested he can't understand styles and tactics change ?
When managing Benfica, Souness released Deco because he thought he didn't have the physicality to become a top player and prefered to bring an old Michael Thomas because he was built like a tractor.
There lies part of the problem with English (British) managers in a nutshell. :)
At not one time has 'tactics changed' been an excuse to drop a certain type of person out of a sport.
football is not fashion and never before has every team had to conform to the same tactic or else ....like snobs seem to think should happen
any decent moment in these modern day chess games come when a team breaks out of their tactic and goes for it.
money won those leagues anyway.
@@antoniobrandao7139 And Wenger wanted Zlatan to have a trial.There are numerous cases where players that went on to have a great career were let go,rejected at the outset For the same reasons Souness gave and by managers/coaches of every nationality.Nice try though
English managers won't succeed until they understand that football ain't about your name or former club,you need to evolve and embrace the winning way like Pep,Klopp and Tuchel.English managers still think the Fergie way of coaching is the template for success.
It starts from the top, the FA is full of old dinosaurs who've been in their jobs too long. The FA needs a root branch modernisation. Thats the first issue.
The last great English manager who actually WON something was Harry Redknapp.. he should have managed England not Hodgson
That must be some size of a studio to accommodate those egos.
Guys, go watch the Champions league final between Barcelona and Man United - Pep vs Fergie. Apparent Best English side vs Apparent best team. Why was there such a big tactical mismatch in that game with both managers having the same amount of time and prep? One manager even being in the job for less than a year? Which current English coach/manager plays football that takes your breath away? Until you name me one this conversation is pointless.
That was a Scottish manager…?!?!
Typical of the country. English Football had a renaissance when the Premier League began, but it became global. Foreign Players, Foreign Manager, Foreign Owners, and anything English being marginalised. This doesn't necessarily happen in other leagues across Europe.

@@fangdog29It's a stupid term to use,but if you want to say bottler.Then it would be a choice between the 3 that inherited better squads than Gerrard
@@ayoa.o.9966this hits the issue on the head in my opinion. The reason English managers don't develop is because they don't go abroad to learn their craft. Meanwhile, all the Spanish, French, Italian, German managers are willing to go away to learn their trade. The English have stagnated by choice.
Managers from other leagues also put their egos in check and start in lower divisions and work up, like Ancelotti, Conte etc. Meanwhile, in England you have Sol Campbell complaining about not getting Prem offers when he has no managerial CV 😂
English ex players are more interested in talking through punditry than actual coaching or managing a football team.
Jim needs to do some more research, Tony Barton was the Aston Villa manager 1981/82
What has Fergie and them been doing all those years of dominance and impact and inspiring the league. Couldn't inspire not one coach or style of play over all those decades?
That's one of the reasons people rate Pep higher than him
@Adi-Dassler maybe they should try the Fergie way, the jose way, the Wenger way? Why hasn't anyone adopted anything from these guys ? . Arsenal, Brighton, Aston Villa, Tottenham, Brighton all play his style. United have nothing, so they are trying to copy everything City, That's the leagues top 8 clubs. Barring liverpools Gegenpressing employed by klopp, they all play a version of Peps style. English Players will only get technically better, and English coaches will have to develop tactically with the times.
@Adi-Dassler it looks like that now because it's not the English kick and run, rugby football that they're used to. It will take time for the players to develop...It is a shift in English footballing philosophy.
Mike Bassett knew what he was doing with 4-4-2
You cannot bring someone on another era and wonder how they would behave. If they have the same character and were born in this era they will blend in with this generation.
Jordan has never kicked a ball in his life and he's going head to head with Souness ... really??? lol

They forgot Howard Wilkinson who won it with Leeds.
Lol the setups by the FAs of other countries are just legit. Take a look at Italy, there’s a defined system that helps former players from Ancelottis and now Rossis to get into coaching.
Kevin keegan was the closest any englishman got to winning the Prem lge. It took dalglish at blackburn and ferguson at Man Utd to stop him .
There is no world class English manager in last 30 - 40 years .
Graham skirting around the fact the game, and its rules, changed. No longer was it the norm to scythe down opponents and turn the game into a real scrap. When the game required higher levels of thinking and tactics, and the game required more techincal players, the British Isles were just unable to keep up (broadly speaking, minus a few stand outs). The influx of foreign players, coaches, and footballing minds wasn't a fad, it was essential otherwise clubs would be left in the dark ages.
Not to slag off a more classicial style, but there is a reason why those teams don't win the league every year.
No mention of Howard Kendall ?
The problem now is back years ago the English managers were just competing against other British managers. So the foreign managers always probably had the edge, interms of technical coaching & tactically. Also the quality of player was spread through more teams, because only the champions played in the European Cup.
Would the best English managers of the last 20 years, win leagues & trophies in the 1960's & 70's? We don't know, but also would the best British managers then be as good starting midtable today? Would they ever get a top team? How would Ferguson done had he joined a midtable team rather than Man Utd? Would he have done enough to get a top job, we'll nevet know.
Simon Jordan was spot on about the coaching in general in British Football years ago. All that's happened now is the doors have been opened, to managers & coaches brought up in a better culture.
Yeah and pep wouldnt do anything at west brom or luton without billions
@@italianplastic23 We don't know that for sure, he wouldn't win things we can say that. He'd play in a way though & build, where he'd probably get a bigger job as Pochettino & Rodgers did.

The problem is we get situations like Eddie Howe gets top4 and Talksport generally lead the “hes their Mark Hughes, they need a big name”

I wonder if any of these gentlemen had the coaching badges that seem to be so important today with the modern coaches?
Joe fagan 1984european cup winner after clough
When Jock Stein died at the Wales v Scotland game, Souness was crying in the corridor outside the medical room.
I've always felt its because there's a need for English managers to behave....to be polite, courteous, PR darlings.....when we know some of the best managers are so because they are large personalities, they inspire those around them, and they don't always tow the line.
We don't have people like that at that level. Yes, we've had managers like Allardyce, or now Dyche, who are outspoken, but they are lacking the other qualities. We have Southgate, Howe, Potter....managers like that who are far too nice.
Bob paisley, & Joe faggan were men of their time, great men!.. in year to come, 30, 40 years time, people will ask the same question of today's managers... Ynwa
Simple solution: study Italian managers. They’ve been wining in the Prem for years. And I’m not even talking about the big ones. Have a look at Ranieri and Di Matteo.
Lampard, Gerard, Potter, and Rooney all recently got their chances and failed instantly.
For me its very simple, there can't be another SAF because the game as moved on beyond pure man management. You need tacticans and hence it comes down to education. How good is the education of coaches in England?
This is why England will struggle to win the WC or Euros, the foreign players help elevate the English players in the domestic league but when it comes to playing for England they get found out.
If no English manager is managing a top team in the Premier League, how can they manage the national team with the best England players. Makes no sense.
Let Pep manage England and Man City at the same time, change the format so he can do both. England will win everything. Pep will create the system for them to win.
no they don't.......the pool of English players has drastically depleted and what's left has been shoehorned into defensive positions/ water carriers...all the ugly positions which in turn makes ppl think England's style is ugly
if you forget about technique and the cloned academized way that player's of today control, receive and pass that yall 'wow at'......only harry kane breaks into a 90's England team.
England used to produce 3 or 4 different types of wingers ....same with mids/ strikers....and they are all gone....the assembly line got shut down and all that's allowed to be exist are 'ambassador roll players' like grealish and Henderson.
its the equivalent of only having Dennis wise to pick from in the 90s.
They replaced English keepers coz they cant play out from back ! ...which 1. they can ....2. you see more errors then ever with todays keepers playing out from back
and what's the point of winning if u cant do it yourself
Its partly because, for good or for bad, we decided to sell off the premier league, like we have with london and much of this countries industry. Make of it what you will but that is a large contributor. We dont protect or ‘cradle’ our assets, depending on your perspective
How many non-English managers did Simon Jordan hire when he was a chairman?

The Premier League has been Transformed on a weekly, monthly, annual basis by Foreign Players and Foreign Managers.
The top 10 managers in Premier League history are foreign, the top goalkeepers, CDM's, wingers and even strikers in Premier League history are also foreign.
If the English FA had any ambition of winning the Euros they need to ditch Southgate for somebody like Mourinho or Thomas Tuchel.
I agree with Simon, generally (with some exceptions) English managers have simply not been good enough.

I absolutely Hate (Hate with a capital H) Simon Jordan. But on this occasion I think he is spot on.
Old school English managers were (are) stuck in time. Maybe they don't want to learn with others, maybe they don't think they need to evolve, maybe there's and element of arrogance or just lack of capacity to take the next step.
Now with this new generation of English coaches, it is a mystery why they lack quality.
Take a look at Lampard/Alonso... both top players, both midfielders, both coached by the best coachs, same generation,... the only difference is that Alonso played in several countries and Lampard didn't. One is terrible, the other seems to be the next big thing.

Very harsh. He may not have won anything but his experiences alone at various clubs is more than enough to see him well at punditry.
