alanharper Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 How many ex Man Utd players have got jobs based on their names but actually turned out to be a success? Off the top of my head The Snake is probably the most successful I can think of, but the likes of Hughes, Robson, Ince, Turner, Robins, Keane, Solskjaer, Giggs, the Nevilles, Scholes have been a mixed bag at best and a disaster at worst. Even Bobby Charlton was awful as a manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also got his fitness coach with us already Depends. What’s his boyhood club? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffjohnsonmyhero Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Lets not have our club used as a stepping stone ,Bruce never went overboard in his praise of Wednesday when he was here ,Its the biggest club in the world to us Owls ,If any prospective manager does not see it as the same ,PLEASE STAY AWAY.

Even Bobby Charlton was awful as a manager. Laurent Blanc did pretty well at Bordeaux and arguably turned Frances' fortunes around after their disastrous 2010 World Cup display I think he also won a few titles with Paris St Germain but then left because Quarter Final elimination from the champions league is seen as a failure of a season (even if they won the domestic league etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think he would leave his First Team Coach position at Man U to become a First Team Coach at Wednesday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spender Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 For sure, whoever it is will get Christmas at home with the kids because this will be a panic appointment. Then Big Sam in January because he's got passion. Too predictable. Unfortunately it's become a poisoned chalice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
