Wayne Rooney has just been sacked by Birmingham. He took over from John Eustace who was doing fine but I guess the foreign based owners got greedy and wanted a big name. So to answer the OP I nominate the holy trinity of Lampard Rooney and Gerrard (soon to be an ex manager). Please god none of them come near our club. One more point

Wayne Rooney has just been sacked by Birmingham.

He took over from John Eustace who was doing fine but I guess the foreign based owners got greedy and wanted a big name.

So to answer the OP I nominate the holy trinity of Lampard Rooney and Gerrard (soon to be an ex manager).

Birmingham were 6th after 11 games when Eustace was surprisingly shown the door. It would seem that the owners were looking globally and appointed a manager who was high-profile and well known on the world stage. Edited by Willo (02 Jan 2024 3.59pm)

Big name players, recently retired from playing......almost invariably make shyte managers. And conversely some of the greatest managers were either shyte players or never played foorball at all. I predict Wayne Rooney will never amount to a manager worthy of League 2 or higher. And only a madman would appoint Roy Keane to manage a coffee shop wagon. Eze Peasy at Anfield....

Brian Clough who said when asked what makes a good manager "Being out of the game injured for long periods and retiring early helped me become one , the best managers are those that have spent a while watching the game rather than those who have spent far too long playing it" And we still need a striker

Productivity wise it may not yield great results but the entertainment value there would be through the roof! Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!
