he's taken the Redknapp route of being the media darling so they always pop his name up when a job comes up, yet Sherwood legitimately thinks he should already be managing a CL level club, he doesn't even have his badges
he gives the media great quotes (not in substance but in entertainment) he leaked a ton of stuff when he was at Spurs, and he's been leaking stuff through Sam Wallace at the independent for months now
I think as a youth coach he's great, his legacy at Spurs there looks excellent as he was in charge when Kane, Townsend, Bentaleb, Mason have all come through. As well as Josh Onomah who is probably the brightest u18 England prospect
But as a manager with tactics he's all attack, doesn't believe in DMs, and the only reason he had a good record at Spurs is because the talent was better than most of the teams they played (whenever they went up against a better or close to equal team in talent they got absolutely smashed)
