  • Effectiveness of In-Season Manager Changes in English Premier League Football
    Effectiveness of in-season manager changes in English Premier League football Lucas M. Besters*, Jan C. van Ours** and Martin A. van Tuijl*** May 9, 2016 Abstract We analyze the performance effects of in-season manager changes in English Premier League (EPL) football during the seasons 2000/01 – 2014/15. We find that some managerial changes are successful, while others are counterproductive. On average, performance does not improve following a managerial replacement. The successfulness of managerial turnover depends on specific highly unpredictable circumstances, as we illustrate through case-studies. JEL-codes: J44, L83 Keywords: Professional football, manager, change, performance *Department of Economics, CentER, Tilburg University, The Netherlands; [email protected] **Department of Economics, CentER, Tilburg University, The Netherlands; Department of Economics, University of Melbourne, Parkville, Australia; IZA and CEPR; [email protected] ***Department of Economics, Tilburg University, The Netherlands, [email protected] 1 1. Introduction Football is very popular worldwide. In Europe and Latin-America, football has entertained crowds for more than one century. In other continents, interest has increased in the past decades. Top players now move to the football leagues of Australia, Japan and the United States, and, more recently, also to the league of the People’s Republic of China. Both clubs and national associations employ top-class managers from all around the globe to coach their squads. Furthermore, top clubs have an enormous global fan base. The great interest in football is not restricted to fans seeking entertainment. Professional sports, in general, and professional football, in particular, have proven to be a fruitful soil for scientific research.

  • Marcus Rashford
    Marcus Rashford Marcus Rashford is a footballer who plays for Manchester United. He is well known for his charity work and for speaking about issues that he feels strongly about. In June 2020, Marcus wrote a letter to UK MPs that asked them to rethink a decision that he thought would leave many children hungry. Early Life Marcus Rashford was born on the 31st October 1997. When he was seven years old, he joined the Manchester United academy system. At 11, Marcus’s mum asked if he could start a programme that meant that he would be able to live closer to where he was training. Usually, the programme is only available when children are 12 but Marcus was allowed in a year early. When talking about his childhood, Marcus mentions the difficult decisions that his mum had to make so that he could have the best chance at success. Football Career In February 2016, Marcus played his first match for Manchester United in the Premier League. During this match, Marcus scored two goals and his team won. In May 2016, Marcus played for England. During his first match for the national team, he scored a goal in the third minute of the game: this made him the youngest ever player to score a goal for England in their first match. Charity Work When the UK went into lockdown to help to slow the spread of COVID-19, Marcus wanted to do something to help. As a result, he started working with a charity called FareShare. They collect food that is no longer needed and take it to charities who turn it into meals for people who are in need.
