    TO be fair to the bloke, he is good at what he does - manage teams up in the chimpo. Not his fault he's been put into a job he's not best suited to.

    in regards to original point:

    Cappello was a decent player and manager.

    I want to say Conte as well won stuff as player and manager?

    Sir Bobby? He won stuff as a manager and i know he played for numerous different clubs, was he a decent player?

    Also, Cloughie had a decent career as a striker before he got injured badly. Went on to win two European Cups with Forest.
