Why? "Why don't we produce English coaches of Tuchel's standard, Collymore "? Two reasons. 1. £13,700 to do your Pro licence in England, today. In Spain it's around €2000. There are 2200 Spanish pro licence coaches. There are 200 English pro licence coaches. Look at the correlation between cost and coaching number. 2. Gerrard, Lampard, Rooney all took jobs instead of doing 3 years at SGP. Why? Gerrard got £2.5m at Rangers, Lampard £1m Derby, Rooney $1m Washington. Fuentes, Spanish head coach coached Sevilla and Bilbao youth on around €30k then Alaves first team where he lasted 6 months on around €100k before being sacked ( for those who thought Southgate Boro CV wasn't up to scratch). So English coaches have to pay 10 times more than European compatriots to get the same qualification, and English players don't give SGP an identity because they never get there, they go straight to jobs where their fame gets them inflated salary and deal. I invite anyone reading this to.. Tell me Gerrard's philosophy. Lampard's philosophy. Rooney's philosophy. You can't. Because they never went to SGP to learn one or develop one with each other. An "English way". All winners by the way. Spain? France? Every 12 year old could tell you the arse end of every Spanish coach, what the core tenets are and how they play. Why? Those coaches coaches with each other, can afford the courses and develop an overall style that suits the environment they work in ( Spain), which is then taken abroad and utilised everywhere. Deal with the root causes and we'll get our coaches.
