What current footballers would make good managers someday?

Recommended Posts

Hard to think of very many who would step up to management, as most will earn enough money playing that they'll never need to become managers to earn a living.

 

I could see players like Fuchs, Terry or even Joey Barton being driven or passionate enough to give it a go. But whether they'd be any good is another question entirely...

It's hard to tell but off the top of my head... Schmeichel, Albrighton, Cambiasso, Fuchs, Terry and Ibrahimovic.

Pretty sure John Terry will give it a go at some point, probably be a number 2 at Chelsea first. Joe Hart seems the sort who will get a job and just shout at people. Iniesta will probably be groomed into Barcelona manager.

 

Don't really see anyone in our squad as managers, Morgan could be a manager in the lower leagues, it would be great to see Huth as a boss.

i'm sure a lot of players are good managers on fifa on the playstation, bit different in real life. whether they can tell the difference lol

From our current side, I agree Kasper may give it a go, not sure he would be any good, but he seems to be able to now balance the passion and showing some calm/maturity.

 

Fuchs, whilst I think he may have the intelligence, I also think he's intelligent enough to not bother lol although I suppose if he plans to stay in the states for the long term, the pressure would be less, he would make a good coach, that's for sure.

 

After that, Esteban I'm sue will give it a shot, he must have gleaned some quality knowledge after the years and managers he's had in the game. I don't see the John Terry thing, he'd soon get caught out for nailing the next generation of WAGS lol 

 

Joe Hart reminds me a bit of Kasper as well, maybe give it ago but fail, there's a few from the continent I could see having a crack, Lahm, Muller, Pique, Xavi, but I guess it all depends on if they want the hassle, they are never gonna need the money that's for sure.

Fuchs? Has the intelligence, articulacy & seems immune to stress....sounds as if he might like to avoid the graft and enjoy life once he stops playing. Potentially a very good, amusing pundit.

Nuge? Has the drive, personality & organisational ability

Kompany? Captaincy experience at high level, seems thoughtful in interviews

Gareth Barry? A lot of drive, experience playing in a lot of positions

Snodgrass? Seems driven yet a thoughtful bloke

Hasn't he taken the media route?

Quite a few do until they get their FIFA pro liscence..

Carrick

Henderson

Jagielka

Eriksen

As in Christian Eriksen? He's as timid, reserved and bland as they come. Hardly manager material.

 

Schweinsteiger, if he chooses to go down that road, has a lot of the right attributes to manage at a high level I guess...

Kompany, Xabi, Xavi, Iniesta and Silva- funnily enough they all have played under Pep now. 

 

Out of English players, I would say Cahill.  Speaking of Iniesta, it is his 20 years anniversary at Barcelona this week! Impressive stuff. 

 

 

P.S I just re-read the thread title, I do not think Cahill will be good but I do think he would be interested in having a go though. Got a funny feeling Messi would want to be a manager too.
