A player who has made an appearance for each of the managers below at national or international level, who span all the significant football generations so should be inclusive to all to play without much prep needed:

• Bill Shankly
• Brian Clough
• Leo Beenhakker

• Zdeněk Zeman

• Sven-Göran Eriksson

• Kenny Dalglish

• Fabio Cappello
• Ottmar Hitzfeld
• Marcelo Bielsa
• Claudio Ranieri

• Nils Liedholm

 

Game will likely start early next week if that suits all availabilities.

[No2]

Include me.

[John102]

yeah go on

[lifetime fan]

I’m gonna have to drop out sorry guys. 

[Elite]

Yeah me too. Not got the time for the research on this one.

[Guest]

Blimey, that's a complicated one.

 

[Bjornebye]

Just play

[Tony Moanero]

Not for me, mate.

[Allan]

So, how many have we got for this?

 

I find the lack of a list rather disturbing...

Youre up.

 

I realise i am already out of my depth with this draft.

The amount of research for this draft is going to be immense.

 

I'll have very little time for any picks tomorrow between 06:00 - 19:30 as I'm on day shift, and days are extremely busy at the moment.

[Guest Alex_K]

Well it depends how you want to play the game. Pretty much all of these managers should have lots of “names off the top of your head” players. There may be a couple of exceptions who are pretty niche names now (like Zeman) but if you take a cursory look at their managerial history they had loads of big names to choose from

@Alex_K Technically I can pick Dalgish right seeing as he was player/manager therefore essentially managing himself? 

[Lee909]

Where have you got Cruyff from in terms of manager

 

The only possible one I can think of is Leo Beenhakker and he left Ajax at the end of 80/81, Aad de Mos took over in 1981/82 when Cruyff rejoined. Or am I missing him from somewhere else
