Clough and Robson were both top players as well as elite managers

You could change it up to three centre backs. With how Ronald Koeman is performing this season with a top club itās not fair to not include him imo.

Fergie was my original choice as striker but opted for Rinus just due to his monumental impact on football over the decades.

I can do that, then change the full backs to RM and LM.
WOW I just looked up Clough and he scored 251 goals in 274 games

Very few goalkeepers seem to go on to manage. Wonder why that is. 
Changed it to 3-4-1-2
Yeah. Zenga was scraping the barrel give. His poor management career. Elite goalkeeper though haha
He had a great goal scoring record and it was only his injuries that stopped him getting more.

There are quite a few tbh. The Belgians have Goethals and Preudāhomme for example. They donāt reach the level others in this thread have.
Ironic that Hunt probably wouldnāt have been starting for England if Greaves and Clough were available

Why Zagallo? His goal scoring record as a forward is poor and his Brazil '70 team is more a product of personnel quality than anything tactically impressive. They played with 4 forwards
Heās a world cup winner as player and manager.
George Graham
Dino Zoff maybe. Done okay.

Not really sure Koeman has the managerial track record for this side.
If weāre looking for more midfield players, Del Bosque was an important part of a very successful Real team in the 1970s and then won everything there is to win as a manager.
Right, Never felt so unqualified reading a thread.
I am out.
