Firstly you’ve assumed that a squad is 100% male. Secondly she has the same qualifications as every Premier League manager so why would her opinions be numb and void? Thirdly any manager only gets respect/support of the results match the expectation of the club/fans/ownership…if they do why wouldn’t she get the respect/support?
😳🫣😂
 
A squad in a man’s league is 100% male mate!

Flippant, possibly erroneous, comment regarding sexuality rather than gender to be fair.

However a question for you… Is Emma Hayes’s Pro Licence worth less than of the current any Premier League managers?

No, but her experience is sure is.
 
No, but her experience is sure is.

Managing a trophy riddled group for the last decade is worthless? Being named FIFA best coach in 2021 alongside Thomas Tuchal is probably meaningless too eh?
 
Maybe she should put on a wig and false beard, call herself Henry Hayes, coach a "men's" team to success and then do a big unveiling?

There are obvious reasons why a female player won't be appearing in elite level male football soon but there's no reason why a woman couldn't coach or manage a top team.

OK
 
It’s like comparing a tin of Branston beans to a tin betterbuy beans!

How? She has the same tactical and technical knowledge as her male counterparts, and she has a winning mentality.

There is no difference in terms of group dynamics at all between coaching a group of male professionals and female professionals.

How would you rate Gordon Strachan as manager? After all he won trophies galore at Celtic

The WSL is similar to the Scottish league in that there's the same teams at the top & the rest are cannon fodder. The WSL has 3 teams that have money & are so far ahead of the rest. See how many hammerings they dish out.
It's impossible to know if she is actually that good & if she would succeed in a more competitive league.
 
Who ever hires her they in for a hiding for nowt. You won’t be able to second quests her team selection or critique her post match interview without out the press calling the fans sexist or toxic. Or can you imagine if she does a poor job and fans are chanting for her to be sacked the press would have a field day, not to mention the massive circus it would bring internationally.
Good point. Totally different situation to women's footie where none of the players get crucified by the pundits/media and there are no crowds so they don't have that stress side of things to think about. That being said I'd like to see how it panned out.

It’s not even about money mate. Male footballers at the highest level won’t respect a woman manager telling them what to do. I know people think we are this all inclusive world now but we aren’t and never will be.

Another good point.

I totally agree. But to dismiss her qualifications and experience to say she would fail or never gain respect is far too simplistic and misogynistic.

She may fail, plenty of men have and will continue to do so.

The “reasons” given on this thread why she will fail are bullshit though!
 
In your opinion.

And that’s fine, I love a decent debate but the “cos she’s a woman” isn’t a valid reason at all.

Obviously in my opinion.
Well yes, my reasoning is she hasn't been in an environment where criticism is rife.. Pundits, media, fans etc. Its an extra stress she hasn't had from even ex pros that went into management. But like I said if she wants to have a go then it would be interesting to see how it panned out.

And that is a reasonable argument.

As you say it would be interesting to watch!
