Emma Hayes will one day manage in men’s football — so why not now? on 18:40 - May 27 with 7185 views | TGRRRSSS | A bit before my time to be fair, but I think she's very Chelsea and I think if she was serious and hey ho fine but probably somewhere else a bit less high profile - because it will be high profile anyway, maybe a lower league club maybe Wimbledon which was suggested a few years back for example. | ![](/images/avatars/1291.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
Emma Hayes will one day manage in men’s football — so why not now? on 19:17 - May 27 with 7090 views | bosh67 | I was going to bring her up on the managerial thread. Yes, I know... Chelsea... Games managed 242 games won 164 games drawn 32 games lost 46 % wins 67.77 Chelsea so no... Anyone remember Dave Sexton or Ray Wilkins? Is she a better coach than any of the current male coaches in this league? Tactically, playing style wise and game management? Probably better than more than half. I'm going to stick my neck out here. I've watched quite a bit of women's football and she's lightyears ahead of most of her male counterparts. I think she's good enough to give any side in the lower half of this division a top half end of season result. Whether male players at this level would really take her seriously I don't know. It doesn't matter that she's a woman, she's just a bloody good football coach. [Post edited 27 May 2022 19:19]

I pretty much agree with you but the last paragraph is more than half of the answer. Footballers are generally far less liberal than the population as a whole so I feel this experience is doomed to failure and I'd rather it was at another club. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

Emma Hayes will one day manage in men’s football — so why not now? on 00:05 - May 28 with 6643 views | ozexile | I wouldn't have an issue at all if she was appointed. However as was alluded to on another post when are the powers that be going to realise that coaching alone doesn't make you successful as a football manager. Is emotional intelligence ever considered or empathy? If players like you and you can click with them they will bust a gut for you. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) | Login to get fewer ads

I have no idea what Emma Hayes is paid but Arsenal pay their women’s team League Two wages and seem to do ok. Can’t imagine Emma Hayes is paid much more than that.

Emma Hayes will one day manage in men’s football — so why not now? on 07:40 - May 28 with 6437 views | Toast_R | This is just nonsense. Woman's football is totally different to men's physically and ability wise . Different ball park and thats before you even consider the discipline and mindset of men compared to women. It would be like appointing a coach who has won the under 13s league because their team have most of the best kids. And when it inevitably all went wrong, we'd be an absolute laughing stock. I'm all for women's football but let's not pretend it's the same as men's because it isn't. [Post edited 28 May 2022 7:41]

| And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot

I’d say it would be no different. We already throw our toys out the pram when we lose! If she keeps off Twitter she’ll be fine. I don’t think Emma Hayes would work for a variety of reasons, not least because we need a manager who’s used to turning turnips into diamonds rather than financially doping the league like Chelsea Women have. There is no FFP in the women’s game I believe? I’m sure there are some amazing young technical female coaches / managers out there though that deserve an interview. [Post edited 28 May 2022 8:23]

How is that different for any male manager we appointed? A lot of sexist nonsense masquerading as excuses goi g in I this thread. [Post edited 28 May 2022 8:26]

What do you think they do with men running womens’ teams? I hasten to add, not for me at this time. [Post edited 28 May 2022 10:30]

Probably has largest budget in women's game? Presume Chelsea have yet again bought their recent success in the women's game as they did the men's and junior boys? Total hype-job, talked a good game before last year's Champions League Final and were laughingly played off the park, 0-3 or 0-4 in first 15 minutes and still came back with the embarrassing cliche's 'it was a learning (sic humiliating) experience. A great fit for Chelsea, no thanks. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

It's like Pep. Easy to be a good coach when you have twice the resources of anyone else. If she then did it at QPR women you'd be snapping her up no issues | ![](/images/avatars/1828.gif) |
