He could go to Plymouth and finish off what Rooney started 😂
😂😂😂😂😂
Rooney going the other YEAAAHH OF COURSE 🤣
he is to good for his teams he should have taken England
😂😂
I was going to leave a smartass commet, but I can't top that.😜
Steven Gerrard, Frank Lampard, Wayne Rooney. Great players, terrible managers.
Interesting 🤔
@@noone-qg1od It is for the fact that it many walks of life people who are great at doing the job are made managers and then keep on going, a great surgeon does not necessarily make a great manager, a great lawyer does not make a good leader (ever!); that is what is wrong with the world - we move the people who are very good at doing a job to managing people who do the job less well while they also lose interest doing something they dont want to do other than it is more money.
Rooney was great. Frank and Gerrard were never great.
How are you comparing Gerrard to those other flops at least he’s won a European trophy, lampard and Rooney literally relegation specialists, Gerrard had one bad spell and he’s crucified
As Simon Jordan said ,they are all touchline captains
Gerrard ,Rooney and Lampard are the Three Stooges ...Moe, Larry, and Curly lol
Awesome players don't necessarily make good managers. Must be hard coaching people with a fraction of their playing ability. Probably can't get their head around how poor some of these pro players really are 😂
Don’t worry, they still won’t even hire to clean their poop
I think they need to work as assistants under a proper manager first.
Gerrard won a league by going unbeaten.
He has made some bad decisions in his career but he isn’t in the same group as Lamps and Rooney as far as managerial achievements are concerned.
Where does Gary Neville fall? 😂😂😂
This is why LFC fans should have no say in team transfers. There was a time some wanted SG to take over from Klopp.
Same with united fans.
Yup look at us when we got stuck with Ole for three years. It was terrible. It's not just the on pitch performances that people only focus on it's the damage that's done off the pitch. Lowering the standards
Not 1 Liverpool fan has asked for Gerrard to replace Klopp. As Gerrard said himself in an interview. You talk nonsense.
@@RedSaint Okay.
@@samaita Believe me there were several who wanted Gerrard 😂
Thank god he never become liverpool manager
Gerrard had McAllister with him at Rangers which surely was a big plus up there. He needs a long term job even if it is Championship to get promoted and then Premier League, like Roy Keane did.
100% agree with Simon, Gerrard is a poor manager whom only won 1 league title because of a celtic team which imploded.
Absolute nonsense, Rangers went that season undefeated and only conceded 13 goals and finished on 102 points, fck all to do with Celtic imploding
Simon is failed owner and footballer should he be talking to gerrard can' talk to anyone
How can you be a poor manager and win a League title? Shut up man. Simon doesn't know a thing about Football his entire career in punditry is provocation statements and rage bait like this, not actual intellectual discussion
@Glen-z7jno fans in stadium...... Went back to normal the second fans came back in
@justablokepostingfunvids7137 he won the league something they will never do again
Gerrard isn't coming back a poor manager. He was a poor manager when he got there......🤣
Simon is a mean SG is coming back as a poorer Manager lol😅
Tbh he is coming back a rich manager lol.
Shocking how much money some people earn for being so very ineffective.
Football and politics
All he has to do is wait for someone to give him a job, wont be long.
@ If Rooney can get a job I’m sure Gerrard can. I think he should drop down, league 1, Peterborough or somewhere like that.
Are you on about Jordan?
"imminently means imminently" top tier analysis right there. hope he's getting the big bucks for insight like that
Haha, and then the disclaimer came either today or before the transfer window closes 😂
Beat me to it😅😅
Unai Emery destroyed his Premier League managerial career.
By showing the difference between an imposter and a proper manager 😂
arsenal destroyed Unai
@ Exactly
@ Yes then Unai destroyed Arsenal with Villareal over two legs in the Europa League. Then Unai destroyed Arsenal's hopes for the league last year.
@michaelwallden7261 😂 and Villa released Emi Martinez from his Arsenal restraints, and he went on to fulfill his potential.
The more interesting question, especially after Jordan questioned John Barnes and Defoe, for expressing that ex black players are not given managerial opportunities. Lampard, Rooney and Gerrard have been given some unbelievable opportunities and failed, but yet they continue to get jobs. It's disgusting!
I personally loved the work he did at villa I hope he goes straight back there in another capacity,undermining and helping them get relegated
That would be beautiful.
😂
I'm hoping Liverpool will "gift" him to Slot
get him back to liverpool and working behind the scenes with the academy players, thats what he's good at.
Is it? Pretty sure Liverpool were just humouring him by having him as an academy coach.
@@thebeast3279No he was good helped to bring Curtis Jones through.
@@thebeast3279 nope Curtis jones and Trent have spoken highly of his time at the academy.
@ he coached him for a year in a decade at the academy. Don't think he can take the credit.
Please no
He asked to leave because he knew what was coming once again as it was going to make his CV look even worse. Its one of the reasons he left Rangers to , he was getting sacked and jumped before it happened.
The guy is absolutely clueless as a manager but there will be some other mug out there who will throw more cash at him in no time.
He was 4 points clear at the top of the table when he left Rangers. He was nowhere near getting sacked at Rangers.
Some people are thick to speak
Players that good, expect everyone to play and have a football brain like his….He can’t get his head round it….Most players will never be that good, simple as that.
"absolutely clueless" yet he won a league title 🤔 some might say you're indulging in conjecture and hyperbole...
I think you’re the ones that’s absolutely clueless 😂 must be a bitter rangers fan
What ever happened to an apprenticeship.... which goes for managers also...
go to a 4th tier club and earn a reputation.
Like Arteta!
Don't you love people who've never been in a certain profession talk as if they are entitled to a certain standard and have the gall to criticise and making disparaging comments about people who've actually been successful in it? Simon, Steven Gerrard has won a League title and has managed at English Premier League level, whether or not that stint was successful... you worked in a boardroom solely because of your wealth and somehow think this qualifies you to work as a pundit. You're not fit to button Steven Gerrard's jacket when it comes to Football management, let alone lace his boots.
He's not going to sleep with you mate , calm down.
@@Roger-Bacon Are you even replying to the right comment or was that one of the cringiest attempts at humour I think I've ever seen online? Please tell it's the former....
Jordan is entitled to his take. He is paid to offer his sagacity. Perhaps you could offer a proper rebuttal to the points he made instead of wheeling out the tired old invective: "but he wasn't a manager so has the gall... "
Perhaps you should consider the irony attached to your own feeble logic could be reversed - e.g that because you have never been a pundit/manager you are not fit to a attach Jordan's cuff links.
See how that works?
Football is a game of opinions - whether it is from armchair fans, diehards, or professionals.
Dismissed.
Great honest views as always 👍
Gérard should never coach another team again.
Gerrard ... gerard played for valencia
Rangers is FAR bigger than any Saudi club.
Maybe in terms of fanbase and recognition. In terms of pure cash flow though, Saudi will always win.
Lol rangers can't pay anybody 100k a week. Gerard's salary alone in Saudi was 250k a week. So NO, RANGERS IS NOT BIGGER THAN A SAUDI CLUB. Money talks
Deluded Gers
That's quite the achievement.
People need to stop saying Lampard is a bad manager. Got Derby to play offs twice - where are they now? Had Chelsea top 4 with a transfer embargo - Chelsea then spent £2b and went backwards. Now he's actually doing well at Coventry. His record isn't that bad!
He was terrible at Everton to be fair
He managed that (managed NOT getting promoted, for emphasis) because he had premier league/international level players on loan from chelsea and a chequebook so ridiculously big that it put derby in administration.
Lampard took over derby who the previous year finished 6th. He finished 6th with them after spending big money on 3 premier league loans and signed several players. Lampard is no use.
Lampard is overrated couldn't get derby promoted also during his time at chelsea because there is a transfer ban, people always give him more credit than he should i guess everyone forgot chelsea did managed to bought pulisic and kovacic even during the embargo and every year chelsea bought players in bulk like shopping at tesco therefore chelsea team was not as weak as people might think.
No managers are successful or good! Only two or three win anything in ten years! Even Ferguson percentage win was 60 something! How many teams have won anything? Managers mean nothing
I don’t know what Simon Jordan is good at, Poor owner!
Being A know it all
Disc jockey.
We gonna ignore what he did at Rangers?
One trophy out of ten....
He won a two horse race at a time when the other horse was on 3-legs. Fantastic.
Winning a League and doing so undefeated is counted as nothing these days, everyone is judged by the same standards of PEP. 🤦🏻♂️
Wasn’t even his doing it was mostly Michael Beale.
Some ex players who were very good, even World class doesn't guarantee they will become good to great managers
Let’s be real he never got backed like the other Saudi clubs.. typical Jordan hating
Let's be real, he's an atrocious manager regardless
I think he'd be great back at Villa. With his experience, he'd definitely get a bar job or catering assistant role. He'd have my full backing 👍🏻
Cleaning toilets with his bare hands is his level.
It's strange that some amazing and experienced players later become excellent managers while other amazing and experienced players become poor managers.
Yeah shanks docherty fergie paisley klopp it is wierd
It's not weird. It's brains or a level of understanding. Gary Neville spoke about this in his book. He didn't know when he should be training players and resting them. He wasn't certain how long for and how to motivate them. He stated he felt isolated and responsible as the coaches were waiting to be given instructions to allow them to do their jobs but in the end Gary gave his assistant the ability to instruct the coaches and players. He was completely lost
I am honestly struggling to understand how people are taking anyone's record in Saudi Arabia seriously when it isn't a serious league in the slightest. It's a minnows country in the Football world, you could easily find better talent at an under 15s Sunday League game in Coventry than you would amongst the home grown players of Saudi Arabia, and don't even get me started on the Europeans who we ALL know are only there for a final big pay day. And you're taking someone's record in this country seriously?
So what if players go there for a big payday who actually cares if someone wants to earn money then fair play to them
@@Fabbydabby1 Putting aside the fact they get anywhere from £50k-£400k a week here in England; that's not the point I was making. I was saying how can anyone take that league seriously when the only players of note in it are clearly only there for a big payday before retiring, not for the chance of winning a trophy no-one cares about.
Yep agreed
Sure he's bad, but at least he realised that and went to Saudi to earn some wedge. Meanwhile you have Rooney and Lampard who seem to think they are actually good. Where's Simon's video about them?
There's plenty of them!
Are you suggesting Jordan never criticises Rooney?????? 😂😂😂
Did you start watching this morning?
You clearly don't watch this enough then 😂
Yep you are clueless
He’s poor - a poor poor Manger. He’s only managing club because he’s Steven Gerrard.
Go and manage yours coz of whatever you are as well.. Pretty simple.
Stats speak volume, they should never have appointed him. Been abysmal at any club he’s coached.
Same country that their fans were complaining about appointing a winner like Thomas Tuchel as manager, meanwhile they don't have a single good manager.
Imagine being Simon Jordan, and questioning whether Steven Gerrard was a good player. Who the hell are you, Simon?”
won rangers a first league title in ages, something they havent done since, hes hardly poor, Frank Lampard, Wayne Rooney are poor
by all accounts his assistant was responsible for the results. No coincidence as soon as he parts way with his assistant he cant win a match.
He's rotten.
1 trophy in almost 4 years at the club is the worst stats of any Rangers manager in our history , the guy was clueless as was his buddy Beale.
@trtvitor1385 why did his assistant fail on his own 😂so thick you are
@@oaktree5975beale failed more than anyone 😂😂😂😂 on his own
Gerrard is NOT a manager. A coach of the under 15 girls team at Tranmere might be a push
Simon is talking BS, NUNO ESPIRTO Santos was sacked in the Saudi league. He is the manager of Nottingham Forest he is doing well 👏
No he isn’t. He’s had one successful season in a two team league. He’s been shite everywhere else. You’ll be saying next Lampard and Rooney are great managers.
@iangascoigne8231 clearly your Manure United or billionaire bottle 🍼 jobs fan that's why you talking 💩. Gerrard smashed it in the Scottish league he I am not saying he is the top 6 manager in the Premierleague, but he is definitely got more manager credibility than fat Rooney and your Lampared by Chelsea 🤣🤣🤣.
As a Forest fan, I’d love to see him get the Derby job if it becomes available. Slippy G could help them slip into League 1 and then League 2!
Gerrard was exposed at Villa the fact Emery got that team from 17th to Europe with only one addition 2 years ago says it all
Simon speaks FACTS!
Yes Gerrard is a poor manager that won a league title with Rangers against a very dominant Celtic 9 year title holders😂
Simon Jordan he use to own Crystal Palace don't you know he keep's telling everybody he meets
Never seen a person so proud of bankruptcy
Just goes to show being a top player doesn't always make a good manager. Ask Wayne Rooney. ..
Me and the rest of the Everton boys wish him all the best at Liverpool - please, please, please!
At about £1000000000 a week, i think every manager in the world would be interested in a ‘conversation’..
55! Enough said! Once a legend always a legend. Have some respect!
You're 2-0 up at the Emptyhad, it's the last game of the season, your former club is winning and top of the league, your star player Countinho is singlehandedly ripping City apart, 12 mins on the Clock gerrard takes countinho off and they capitulate sitting on a 2-0 lead and give up 4 goals, i knew then gerrard was a awful manager.
it was actually 3-2 to m city m8 in that match so they did not concede four goals regardless of gerrard tactics etc🤔 in any case I am a liverpool fan aswell however I was surprised it got that close personally it is irrelevant now really anyway🤣
Right because no manager in history has ever taken an attacking player off to try and see out the game
@@Mashedpotato334 fair point m8 its right out of the managerial playbook🤣
@@simonoliver8576 exactly mate 🤣 some people havent a clue
Was in the Pub when Gerrard took the Rangers Job and all the Reds fans were saying 'he's are next Manager' still want that?
Another ex great player who’s utter shite in the dug out.
I notice that Simon doesn't believe in British managers.
Time to step away from the game. Just go to Liverpool games
I never understand why clubs think a good player automatically makes a good manager.
Coz you think you could do a better job?
I'm sorry I thought his legal name was slippy g.
Har har very funny and original
I see what you did there...
Gerrard nearly relegated villa, then a proper manager comes in and they're flying
He was a a poor manager when he went over there, but he’s come back a Rich manager
Funny thing is everyone slates him and compares him to Rooney and lampard but he's won a title as manager they haven't.
He should definitely give it up like Neville and maybe move into punditry.
If he wants to stay in coaching it might be better he works with academies
I think the problem is these ex-players go and do their “badges” and think they are something special.
Badges looks good on paper but in the football world it doesn’t mean anything.
I admire all ex players who pursue careers as coaches and managers.
I think pundits are quick to criticism them when they get sacked.
Putting yourself out there is brave
As a manager he Won more than any of the other “Golden Generation” Nevilles won Nout Rooney nout Beckham nout Lampard nout
They discrediting him because its Gerrard, which is very weird considering he won something
ROONEY AND GERALD ARE VERY RICH
VERY GOOD FOOTBALL PLAYERS.
TERRIBLE MANAGERS
FACT
Gerrard is quite easily one of the worst managers to have ever managed Villa and going out to Saudi was obviously not a good idea either if he went out there to try and prove himself. I believe Lampard is trying to do the right thing by managing Coventry so maybe "Stevie" should think about doing the same thing if only for his self respect. No Chairman, in their right mind would take Gerrard on as a manager right now unless of course he has no respect for the club he runs.
Gerrard is a million miles away from potentially becoming a good manager, but i guess we will just have to wait and see. Personally i would not let him anywhere near a club that i owned.
Just cse you played football doesn’t mean you can manage football.
I want to know what Jordan is good at???
This was a game of cat and mouse between Ettifaq and Gerrard. Ettifaq didn't want to pay him out and Gerrard wanted the payout. He was TERRIBLE.
I challenge anyone to be good in a league of goat herders and uninterested has-beens who are only there for a final payday. It is not a serious league, so how can anyone judge him seriously for his record there?
@MovieKnight-c6u Nunes Espirto Santos won the league and cup back to back.
@@ifldiscovery8500 Good for him, I don't get your point though?
@MovieKnight-c6u you said goat herders and uninterested has beens. No its professional competitive league that has actually good players who work hard and dedicated.
If the Saudi League is so easy how come Gerrad cannot win the league Nunes did back to back taking a top 6 team to glory.
@@ifldiscovery8500 Yes I'm sure the standard of talent in this professional league is of the highest quality, and every European/South American player aged 35+ who goes there and gets 4x the wages he got in Europe is definitely there for the pride and honour of winning such a prestigious league... who are you kidding? Nobody cares who comes first or last in that league, it's just a way for a backwards country with money to sportswash itself on the international stage and fit in a little better, while ageing players from Europe get a final pay day and cushy lifestyle before retirement
He could be a steady manager somewhere so can Lampard. Same way Steve Bruce has got all those games under his belt.
Gerrard just went for a paycheck, he didn't do badly in Scotland - maybe he gets another gig there. cant see him walking into anything special though.
He was at Rangers nearly 4 years and won one single trophy in the time he was there , unheard of for any Rangers manager in our history , the guy has now proved time after time he is absolutely clueless as a manager.
He managed Rangers, one of the biggest and best jobs you can have in football, maybe not financially but as a club Rangers are special
😂😅😂@Glen-z7j
2 team league when one team self distructs like celtic did that year the other one wins
@@stephenandrews5782 yes but even a strong Celtic challenge that year woujd have been difficult, Rangers were outstanding and dropped very few points
Simon, you don't know whether one of the best midfielders in the history of the game was a good footballer? Or what exactly are you saying chief??
Not even in the top 20 of best midfielders ever
@bobsocks7575 spoken like a true fool who knows nothing about football.
@ shh the grown ups are talking, now go back to your crayons
My issue with Simon is if Gerrard was interviewed by him he would use big words to try and skirt around what he said here
Simon Jordan speaks absolute facts.
In fairness he done very well in Scotland. Poor in the premier league. And nobody takes the suadi league seriously. Hes a young manager who can revive his career. Or end up like rooney
He might have lower his expectations in EFL, respect to Lampard who has and IMO think will prove a success at Coventry City given time. As for Rooney it's shame it's not happening for him as Coach with his obvious passion for the game.
Yet to see a decent English coach… no wonder the premier league is dominated by managers from abroad
You don’t win a league title against a dominant club if you are a poor manager. Gerrard clearly has a talent as a manager but he needs the right club. Look at Nuno. Awful at Spurs. Is he a poor manager? No. Look at him at Forest. Simon clearly dislikes Gerrard the manager for some petty childish reason.
Gerrard only won league in Scotland because there were no crowds in CONVID season
The Saudi's are being very kind in adhering to the narrative of 'he's asked to leave'.
There is something he is never going to win, either as a player or a manager; a league title!
Maybe he goes to the MLS, but not sure how they view him out there.
He's defo a poor manager, as Simon illustrates.
Reversed a 20 point gap in the SPL and stopped a dominant Celtic team from winning 10 in a row. He's nee Ian Dowie like Simon, is he?
Wonder what spin his mate Carragher will put on this.
He won Rangers the league. Not as bad as you say. But not a PL manager
Went unbeaten in a full season to take Rangers to their first title in 10 years - not sure what he’s good at
These guys haven’t been great in management yet I get that! But it’s still very early they could have a 20 year managerial career so I believe at some point they will perform
Why are people even suggesting any sort of return to Liverpool,Arne Slot has the team purring at the moment and Gerrard is damaged goods,why take the risk?
As a Villa fan I can safely say he is the worst kind of manager there is. Tactically clueless, talked the club down "chelsea should come here and wipe the floor with us" upsets his players including our captain at the time. Useless in every possible way.
Making £300,000 a week, that's what Gerrard's good at SJ
I’d have him back at Villa tomorrow. There’s plenty steward jobs going.
Gerrard presided over one of Scotland’s greatest ever title wins. Shush Simon.
Russell Martin haha quality 😂
Doubt Gerrard bothered. Walks away with tens of millions to add to his millions.
Gerrard spent more time at a club in Saudi Arabia, than Rooney has at, what 5 clubs?
Stevie is my idol. For me, he should've never gone in the 1st place. After Villa he should've taken a punditry position. Great players dont always make great managers
As a liverpool fan, simon is spot on. Apart from his playing career he isn't good at any aspect of management. There are these Liverpool fans who still want him back at the club, these imbeciles have never run a business in their life. How can you jeopardize a business by bringing in Steven just because your heart says so. You get the best man for the job, stats and leadership qualities. You have to look for many things, for a manager. Their tone of voice, their presence and of course tactical qualities.
None of the great Managers were ever great players, some hardly played at a serious level. Recent greats ,Wenger, Ferguson, Gardiola, Mourinho to name a few.
England has not produced any manager of note in decades so I find it unwise to blame Gerrard,Rooney and Lampard, it's just not in their DNA.
Southgate is not a success either( if Capello or Eriksson had the talent at his disposal), they would've at least won the Euro.
Gerrard hasnt been too bad. Big success at rangers winninf a title,he must have something. He should easily get a shot elsewhere. Championship be good
Gerrard isn’t quite the failure in management that Rooney is. Might get a Championship manager’s job or a role at Liverpool if one’s available
Quick to call the money out when its gerrard but the media dont say the only reason peps won is an unfair financial advantage?
I thought Saudi league was easy?
Another English who only played well for Liverpool for so many years and without epl medal couldn't even coach in Saudi Arabia but their pundits and media are always trying to criticise foreign coaches who are doing well in the epl
3:25 nail on head
The list of “poor managers making millions” is endless.... Football will eventually go broke!
Given him the National job. Tuchel is from Germany.
He was managing a team with nowhere near the budget of the other teams.
Simon a little aggressive towards Gerard? Mourinho was a "bad" manager before they booted him from MUFC?
