    Gerard Houllier

    Never played professional football. Initially, before moving into football management, he was a teacher.

    Only played at low levels - Gravesend appears to be his highest club (although was a trainee with Palace)

    No but it's got to help if you can ride a horse.
    Not sure if that makes a footballer a better manager than one who never played though.

    Jockey / Trainer would be a more appropriate analogy, but the answer is still no.

    Why I wonder has the footballing world avoided non-footballers - There are some excellent leaders/motivators in other sports like Dave Brailsford, Warren Gatland. Combine one of them together with a 'football brain' and you'd have a winning combination.

    thank you mate, joined in the hope of an uplift in the season, survival and better football times ahead. You did need another optimist aboard didnt you?

    Rafael Benítez, don't think he played at a good level.
