Oh man, crazy climax of the Dutch league.
True, there's certain qualities not all great players have. They're not all leaders, not all good at communicating and teaching etc. That in combination with tactical intelligence.
Again I wouldn't hate De Boer being appointed. If it isn't Mourinho I hope it is De Boer. But that tweet is absolutely absurd. Just because he was a great player doesn't mean he is a great manager. i.e. Alan Shearer, Paul Ince, Tony Adams, Paul Merson, Maradona, Souness would all help prove that point.
