6) Young talented managers being given chances, and thriving…
The two frontrunners for the Premier League Manager of the Year award are both under the age of 42. Everton’s Roberto Martinez and Liverpool’s Brendan Rodgers both put faith in young stars, encourage attacking, exciting football and come across as respectful and well spoken in the press.
More importantly, it works, and both are on track for their best ever Premier League finishes.
Elsewhere, English managers like Steve Bruce of Hull, and Tony Pulis of Crystal Palace have massively overachieved as well.
