Following Roy Keane's recent appointment as Manager of Sunderland FC, Sue Mott in the Telegraph raised the interesting issue of whether world class players can successfully make the transition into world class managers.
She quotes Arsene Wenger who says that a footballer thinks Me! Me! Me! whilst a manager has to think You! You! You! Do players have the transferable skills required to become managers? Are they skills that can be acquired or are they intuitive? What selection procedures do Chairmen and boards undertake when considering the appointment of a new manager?
