Comparing coaches to their playing careers! | Matty Johns | Fox League

[@michaellincoln3739]

The greatest coaches (in any sport) were never truly great players. Being a great former player is a handicap as a coach. Great former players were natural winners at their sport, therefore they don't fully understand what it is like to struggle when the chips are down. The great coach Jack Gibson was a good example. "The greatest teachers are those that struggled learning their profession" - Aristotle 316 BC

You have to be kidding. Gibson had a fine career. 160 odd game across 15 years and captained Easts in a Grand final, and played in another Grand final for wests

Not true at all Brian Clough was a fantastic player and his coaching record well , let’s say forest haven’t won the European cup since

[@archipiratta]

Let's see: Pep, Conte, Enrique, Ancelotti, Mancini, Deschamps, Zidane... And that's just soccer alone... Yeah, nah...

[@w0lfm4n43]

Is an age old saying... "thats that cant, teach" but i think its half true. Way i see it... if you are a winner on the field.. you know what it takes to be a winner. But..... Its mindset... Its football knowledge... Its ppl managing...

[@w0lfm4n43]

​@@archipiratta well soccer coaches got diplomas from acting school didnt they? The memes dont lie.. someone treads on a toe.. players act like they got hit by a train... in one pic.. The other is a car a crumpled mess n driver walkin away, dudes with fingers broken outta skin, playing on as if nothing happened, broken jaws etc.. Cant knock soccer though... highly paid actors, who cant play a real sport cos they scared of actual contact.

Wayne Bennett also toured with the Kangaroos, but didn't quite make Test selection.

Sad that such great archival footage and information is wasted with boofheaded in-jokes and stupidity. Sad that Matty Johns is slowly becoming Footy Show 2.0
