ESPN s top 30 football coaches in Europe: Enrique ranks first, and the 6th, Amorin 24th

August 13, ESPN ranked the current head coaches in European football through multi-dimensional comments and selected the 30 best coaches in European football.

How to select the 30 best coaches? ESPN said that there were about 50 head coaches initially shortlisted, and after soliciting opinions from some practitioners in the football industry, the list was reduced to 30. The 30 candidates were then scored on six indicators, with the total score being their final ranking.

1. Coach Insight: Apply coaching principles to the competition environment, physical preparation and in-game management.

2. Tactical style: the attraction of football style. Here, viewing is crucial, and likewise, the coach's ability to control the progress of the game in an active (rather than passive, i.e., counterattack). Offensive football will receive higher ratings.

3. Personnel management: motivation skills and ability to motivate the team's best performance. How much players react to the coach and how much they “fight for the coach”.

4. Communication skills: Managers can instill trust in their "projects" internally, in club directors and players, and in the outside world (media, supporters). Their ability to convey information clearly through precise wording and PR skills.

5. Historical Achievements: Successful Result and Results. Although trophy is the main criterion for football to measure achievements, other achievements are equally important, such as leading teams to upgrade, leading teams out of relegation difficulties, leading unpopular teams to European competitions, or performing well with limited resources.

6. Factor X: The ability to win unexpectedly and come up with new ideas. It is expected to be considered for senior positions in the future. Able to recover quickly from a sluggish record.
