themanupstairs Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 No idea, definitely can't think of one in England. Not that I'm comparing 'Arry to Benitez, but I don't even think he's ever managed in the Championship? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlito Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Has there ever been a case of a huge name manager taking on a job in a lower league anywhere else? For the life of me I can't come up with a single "big name" who has done this. I'm sure there MUST have been one or two? Maybe with Juve and/or Fiorentina? Parma? Not got a f***ing clue. Did Juve change managers when they were relegated? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Just thinking out loud - how many managers do you think are better than Rafa? I've got Mourinho, Guardiola, Ancelotti, Klopp, Wenger.... EDIT: Simeone too! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

timeEd32 Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 The list is less than 20. Might be less than 10. It's a staggering appointment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I try to follow Parma as best I can and Nevio Scala, who was hugely successful as a manger there in the 90s, has gone back as chairman since their demotion to Serie D.

Absolutely agree. A man of his pedigree should be going to a tailor. His touchline suits look like they're straight off the hangers from Next.
