BigJoeFan Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 With the news breaking that seemingly Ian Baraclough will be leaving Latics after the Wimbledon game, would anybody else like to see Peter Clarke groomed by John Sheridan as a future Latics Coach or even Manager, I read recently that he is keen on staying in the game in some coaching capacity when he does eventually retire from playing. He certainly displays All the role model attributes whenever he plays i.e. Fierce Determination, Professional discipline, Total dedication, Respected, etc, etc, all qualities that I for one think are essential first and foremost in the makeup of a successful future Manager/Coach in the modern game. Does anyone on here know if he has even done his FA badges yet, I think most Interested 36 year old players usually have ? He certainly seems to have a very good working rapport with Sheridan who is certainly a very similar character as well. Thoughts please. ?

disjointed Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 I dont think many on here wouldn't want him to be trained up as a future assistant, but groomed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh_latics Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Nah, not yet. Rather have him focus on his playing still, and imagine he already does a lot of guidance in an unofficial capacity anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UsedtobeWozzer Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Wellens has passed his UEFA A licence today. Too much midfield class in 1 management team? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlossopLatic Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 (edited) Let him concentrate on playing for now and assuming he retires here then bring him into the coaching setup then but not now it would be a bad idea. Assuming Barraclough goes then he will need to be replaced by a full time assistant i.e. Wright, Shirtliff, Russell etc Clarke could be Shez's successor if we do it properly in 3-4 years time.

If our midfield can't pass with those too showing them what to do then god help them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
