England may be the birthplace of soccer, but why has it struggled to produce top-level managers? The Morning Footy crew dive into the shocking fact that no English coach has ever won a Premier League title, with only two Englishmen currently managing in the EPL following the sackings of Russell Martin and Gary O’Neill. Troy Deeney explores the root causes — from the hyper-competitive nature of the English top flight to the prohibitive cost and accessibility of coaching courses. Can England ever close the gap and develop elite managers to match its global reputation?
