Weekend Quiz: Managers as Players

By: Laurie | December 6th, 2008
   

Today our Quiz is on managers (or coaches) in their playing days.

I didn’t make this one all that hard, just because seeing these guys is so much fun, and I think you’ll enjoy looking at high-level managers more than, say, someone from Belgium’s third division. I won’t guarantee that all of them are currently employed, but all have managed a higher-level team/club at least in the past year or two.

Leave your guesses in the comments. Answers tomorrow.


Manager 1


Manager 2


Manager 3


Manager 4

Manager 5


Manager 6


Manager 7


Manager 8


Manager 9


Manager 10

    Laurie, sadly its just the flags acting up. Pity though, a trip away would be lovely.
  • Jennifer, Blanc then looked WAY too much like Blanc now.
  • I can only recognize RayRay, Gerets, Slaven and Fabio. Failll. Where is Blanc? He's obviously the overlooked rising star!
  • 2-Eric Gerets, a great player and manager, probably my fav. of all of them.
  • im going to use it to black mail him. but i know at the end of the day, instead of getting money out of him, ill end up black mailing him into managing Milan the way i want :D
  • Ohmygosh. That's Galliani? Cutest. Photo. Ever.
  • This is the best Capello picture ever.

    I know the last one. I just can't think of it!
  • Julien G.
    Manager 1 - Raymond Domenech: Out! Out! He's a symbol of betray on behalf of the F.F.F. against the 1998 World Cup team. I wan't Deschamps!!!

    Manager 4 - Bernd Schuster: OUUUTTT!!! What a horrible coach, He's knows nothing about tactics.

    Manager 5 - Fabio Capello: By Far the best coach in the world next to Blanc :) , he should have remained manager of Madrid.
  • I just want to point out that picture 5 (who we all know is Fabio Capello), is not a picture of him in his playing days, that's a picture of him when he first took over Roma as manager.

    Here's a picture of him as a player:
