He's not really.

As a kid and as young adult, yes, he had anger management issues, but he's definitely mellowed in time.

Whisper it, but human beings are able to evolve and change.

That isn't to say that if a player stepped out of line they wouldn't be eating through a straw for a month. It would take a brave (or stupid) player to step out of line.

Can you imagine Ferguson being the Manchester United manager as Ronaldo refused to be subbed on and then subsequently storming down the tunnel?

Ronaldo would be hanging unconscious from a clothes hook in the dressing room.

If that was Ferguson's more mellow response maybe his anger management issues have a way to go 🤣

I always thought Roy Keane was a miserable negative bully who would fall on his a*se as a manager. Which he did. Though now, I realise he is actually quite funny, is a born winner and just has high standards. I doubt he'll go into management again but on paper I dont know why he couldnt do well in the right job

You havent heard of Duncan Ferguson?

In the context of a managerial option I meant. Great leader and would inspire on and off the field.

John Herdman (provided he's open to club management) his Canada side played some lovely football and hunted down in packs! They just didn't have the bit of extra quality to make it count. 

Could get our lot looking miles better. 

Again though would he leave a national side for club football 🤷 who knows.

Serena Weigman- media would love us for it and she did a good job with lionessses

We couldn't afford her. 

I'd like her to collaborate with Southgate first and get England mens better before her next move.

Phenomenal coach though, World Class.

Mark Bowen is 'Head of Operations' at Reading. Highly rated as an Assistant Manager. Time to step up?

Didn't he try and step up but fail quite spectacularly at the head coach role?

Yes, gave himself the job as he thought he was the best candidate

Sounds like Ben Stokes, who has gone from being pretty close to going to prison for GBH to becoming the best England cricket captain for ages. 

I don't know anything about Big Dunc, but your principle is bang-on.
