He is an expert on most things.
Interesting to see how he does as a manager. |  | |  |

Yes, in an earlier thread I posted extracts from that interview that the BBC is referring to.
here's some more:
"The Queens Park Rangers midfield player goes on to explain that there is much more that he does not “get” about the English football industry. It includes a scathing assessment on the quality of coaching; the fear of taking inspiration from other sports; the “mad” orthodoxy of 10am training sessions. He even challenges the cult of Gary Neville, more on which later."
and more:
"“I was about the only one at the Leaders in Sport conference the other week. I spent three hours afterwards with Sir Dave Brailsford. I speak to Sir Clive Woodward, Steve Black, performance experts who are the best in their field. I’m doing it because I want to be one of the best in the world. I’ve never come close to that as a player. I believe I can do as a coach.”
One of the best in the world? Seriously? “Coaching-wise, I don’t believe the bar is set that high in my sport, I really don’t,” he says. “In England, it’s set pretty low. How many top-class English coaches are there? A handful, maybe? There isn’t the same culture of learning from a whole range of sources and applying it – tactics, sports science, psychology, everything. That’s why someone like José Mourinho, having come up a different route, is exceptional." |  | | |

As I said in the other thread. The boy speaks the truth. Let's be honest his current manager was 'the people's choice' for England manager FFS

He may be an excellent coach but he also might be poor,so why doesn't he just say "i want to be the best i can be",saying what he has makes him look a little silly especially as it will get brought up when things aren't going well.. |  | | |
