Was going to say him but reckoned “flair” would be a stretch. More of a maestro! Not the car from the 80’s |

Cruyff and Laudrup. both had flair as players and coached/managed flair teams.
I'm struggling to recall flair British players who oversaw flair teams.
When Hoddle, by any assessment a flair player, took over England, I was anticipating the same. Sadly the footballing cavalier became the managing roundhead, and the likes of Le Tissier didn't get a look in.
Some 'nonflair' players produced exciting teams, Ron Atkinson being the most obvious.

Socrates was manager of Botafogo when I saw them play years and years ago. He smoked on the bench. They gave free cigs out to kids outside the ground as well.

Duhaney will make a fine flair-player-come-manager when the times comes for him to hang up his boots.

Zico also went into management, Roberto Mancini obviously had flair and Zagallo won the World Cup a few times as a player and again as a manager.

Beckenbauer, although nominally a defender, was one hell of a flair player, both when deployed at the back or his libero position. And played in midfield too in his earlier years, which included two world cup finals. By the time he won the third he had retreated into that "attacking defender" role. Then managed Bayern and country.

Would say more Steve Coppell from that side. Chris Waddle had a short managerial spell didn't he talking of wingers ? Peter Beardsley almost managed us. Wish he had after what happened. |
