    David Ginola's doing his coaching badges with us in order to go into management in this country.

    It'll be interesting to see how he gets on and what his style's like.
    Will it reflect the way that he played the game or will he do a George Graham and go the other way completely?
    I'm sure he'll get a good reception at a lot of grounds if he's ever in charge in the top flight, at least.

    Too flamboyant a player and character to become a manager imo PNP.

    Paulo Di Canio seems to be doing alright as a manager.

    I understand what TMT is saying...He could quite easily create a team that plays like the Toon team he starred in, I can't see him boring everyone to death.

    I see Keegan as a bit of a dour character and I cannot say about Di Canio because I never took much notice of him. He just doesn't seem manager material to me.

    Hard to tell, for me.
    He's definitely got the intelligence and charisma and being flamboyant can't be that big a problem, as Mourinho's no wallflower, but it doesn't seem that obvious a move, does it?

    Depends if his no.2 can teach about tracking back...there's very little Ginola can pass on about that. :)

    Ginola has been offered a job in our youth team set up if he passes his badges.

    Good to know, SC. <ok>
    We seem to be assembling quite the collection of ex-players on the WHL coaching staff.

    Yes he has taken a while. Apparantly he is big buddies with Sherwood. So much so, that we are funding the cost of his coaching courses.
