Ray wilkins has been saying lampard should go straight into premier league management so he's probably been telling terry he'll be a great manager all the time

This, also with the effectiveness of Gary Neville, but far, far, far more longevity.

Yeah I don't get what making lots of money has to do with it and I think Terry's wrong.

But like 99% of professional athletes greatly overestimate their abilities to do other things like manage a team, run a business, run a charity, put out an album, say racist things, etc.

Edit: I'm biased but I think Terry and Lampard are likely to be pretty good managers. Both are well liked by their teammates, train really hard, read the game really well, worked under some of the best managers in the game, and both made the best of their limited athletic ability.

Agreed this is why Gary Neville was such a success at Valencia

I don't know if any of his teammates liked him, including his brother

But that's a pretty bad example since Valencia is a trainwreck, and it was Gary Neville's first attempt at management.

Tony Adams would probably be a better example. I can't think of many other examples of famous players like that who ended up being bad managers. I mostly remember the ones that became good managers.

It's people
I think what Terry is saying is there isn't a financial impetus for top level players to go into management so a fast track system might convince more of them to try.

He's missed the deeper point that someone who isn't willing to take the time to learn the job won't have the patience required to do the job.

Marco van Basten is a good example of an amazing player who became an awful manager. He failed everywhere he tried to manage, and now does that embarrassing thing at fifa. It's v. sad.

Not a full season, but Newcastle bringing in Shearer to save the club with 8 games to go, seems like a pretty good example of the job requiring more than being really good as a player/pundit.

5 points from 24, when 6 points would have kept them up.

Is it still the most expensive after shifting Schneiderlin and Mempiss? :raise: That's like -£50m.

It wasn't even the most expensive when they had those players. (Depending on how you define squad anyway).
