Re: Defender's don't make good...........

Alf Ramsey, Franz Beckenbauer, Phil Scolari and Marcello Lippi played as defenders and won the World Cup as managers. They did OK. Meanwhile, the manager who won the World Cup recently (Lionel Scaloni) apparently played most of his career at right-back.

Maybe some defenders can make it as good Managers, but Hudson won't.
