  • 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.

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.

Politics Business Science Sport Roses Freshers Sport › News & Features Comment Varsity Roses College Cup Fantasy Football Pardew latest casualty in manager merry-go-round that excludes younger coaches The recent sacking of West Brom manager Alan Pardew is yet another sign that Premier League clubs should stop recycling older, waning managers and instead put their trust in younger English managers, argues Jordan McWilliam Tuesday 3 April 2018 Alan Pardew departs as manager of West Brom after 8 successive league defeats. Photograph: 101greatgoals. A COLLECTIVE SIGH was let out when Alan Pardew was appointed manager of West Brom in January, as yet another struggling English team in the Premier League had made another uninspiring appointment. It is no surprise, then, that 3 months later Pardew has been sacked with only one league win to his name, leaving the Baggies 10 points adrift of safety. West Brom are not alone, however, as established middle aged journeyman coaches are littered throughout the wasteland of struggling Premier League sides: David Moyes, Mark Hughes, Paul Lambert, Sam Allardyce, Roy Hodgson – with an average age of 57.8 – represent the glass ceiling for successful young managers looking to climb the ladder in England. When Marco Silva was appointed Hull City manager last season, Sky Sports Soccer Saturday pundits Phil Thompson and Paul Merson bemoaned another “foreign manager” gaining a Premier League job at the cost of young English managers, the example given by Merson was Gary Rowett.

Most notably, Barcelona leapfrogs both Manchester United and Bayern Munich to return to second position behind Real Madrid, becoming only the third club to break the €500m revenue barrier in the process. Bayern Munich drop to fifth overall, overtaken by Paris Saint-Germain. 2014/15 saw substantial revenue growth for the top 20 clubs in the Money League overall, with the aggregate annual revenue of these clubs amounting to a total of €6.6 billion, representing an increase of 8% on the previous year’s top 20.

  • Premier League Managers – Nationality and Club Playing History Since 1992
    Premier League Managers – nationality and club playing history since 1992 Football Economics September 2016 Football Economics Introduction In this analysis, we look over the life of the Premier League to consider the extent to which top-flight clubs still look to former players to manage their club and at the shifting mix of nationalities of top-flight managers with a focus on English managers. Eddie Howe at Bournemouth and Alan Pardew are examples of English managers returning to the teams they played for. Still, these are the only two English Premier League managers to have played for their club, and indeed, only one other current Premier League Manager has done so. But how does this compare to the longer- term trend? Of course, managers that have a successful history at a club usually enjoy at least a period of goodwill from fans and, along with a familiarity with the club’s set-up and area, and the fact they may already be on the coaching staff could make a player a more likely candidate to be manager. Premier League Managers that played for their club Our analysis starts at the end of August 1992 and considers five year intervals. In 1992, 9 of the 24 managers (the league shrinks to 20 in all other years) had played for their club. Examples include George Graham at Arsenal, Peter Reid at Manchester City and Graeme Souness at Liverpool.
