I actually think he has a bit of a point, but he should be talking about young British managers.
Just seems like certain British managers can walk into a job whenever they want, regardless of how shite they've done in their last position. Would argue that these £#%&!ers are more to blame for impacting on the prospects of young British managers than any foreigners. |

Tell you what Giggsy, if you're so good then take over at a club on the bones of their arse in the fourth tier.
Work on an extremely tight budget, get players in on free transfers, loanees and youth team kids (provided your employers can afford to run an academy). Then work for a couple of years moulding that team to cope with the rigours of a 46 game season. Midweek slug outs in some god forsaken provincial market town in the driving rain and howling wind. Electric heaters in the changing rooms because the central heating can't be used for budget purposes. Sharing the training ground with local schools and colleges to save a few pennies. Put the time in and show what you can do and then hopefully a team at the next tier will notice your work and think maybe you could bring your talents to the next level of the game. Oh no, you just want to walk into a nice cushy job in the Premier League because you're a famous name and that's your right. |

I know this board boils it's piss at Giggs for whatever reason, but the fact is if he went to some fourth tier team and did well with it, he'd still never be qualified enough for this board to accept him in the United job. If he went to a Swansea or whatever and did a job at a level of Luis Enrique pre Barca (40% win percentage at Roma and Celta) or Mourinho pre Porto (54% with Benfica, 45% iwith Leiria), this board would be full of posts absolutely £#%&!ing raging that he's not qualified for the United job.
The Premier league is obsessed with the idea that only previously successful managers are qualified to manage top clubs. |

It didn't with Fergie's other ex players who went into management. If he has anything about him and does well he can progress up the ladder. It may not be enough to get the United job but so what. What's stopping him just testing himself in management in a new environment and with different challenges? |
