RE: Burnley for the Champions League - why not?
That reminds me of the story of Brian Clough who never got the chance to become the manager of the national team. English football will always be conservative in this regard.
The FA are definitely conservative, but clubs don't go for managers like Dyche because he hasn't proven himself on the big stage. But how can he ever prove himself on the big stage when he's never invited up there?
I agree. It's the fact that you need a "proven" stamp is a conservative approach. You dont need that stamp in Italy for example to become the manager of Milan like Gattuso did lately.
Very true.
