Thank you for the response ..and yes Jose Mourniho has a rock solid confidence but his progress was greatly influenced by the fact that his father Felix Mourniho was the goal keeper for Portugal.That must have made the start for him relatively much easier.Infact i've read his biography by Patrick Barclay "Anatomy of a Winner" and this point seems quite evident since he got most of the initial training in coaching while working under his father.And also dont forget the guy was born with a silver spoon.And i think that when you combine these two factors , it can really bolster one's progress.

I instead regard Arsene Wenger as someone to really look upto because from whatever i've read about his career , it appears that the man started from the scratch and worked his way up.

I think Jose's big break was with Sir Bobby Robson.

Agreed. He had a relatively easy start and shot to prominence after working with Bobby Robson at Barcelona.

I like the aspiration Kush. And when you look at some of the characters who circulate in and out of jobs, sometimes you ask yourself why not?

Kev hits it spot on - the sentiment and timeframe.

Would be interested to read the plan you have in place to achieve this goal. And would be interested to see the story unfold over the years.

If you want it enough, put the hard yards in and make the sacrifices, who knows what you might achieve.

Good luck.

We have coaches here in different stages of the journey, maybe each giving their perspective on how to move to the next level would be great. We can accumulate the experiences and maybe in the end it will work out for at least one!
