It's honestly weird... Howe is the only decent one currently who is getting results AND playing nice football.

The league (PL) is being taken over by Spaniards. Spaniards, Italians and Germans all produce excellent managers. English produce nothing.

We will soon. They are currently graduating from Pep University.

The whole of English football was kick and rush until 2015.
 
I think it has to do more with the passion and the zeal to understand the game and tactics and be a good strategy developer. Outside managers live and breathe football, always discussing it with passion and love. Managing is not all about being a player before being a manager, its also about the brains to see things from the outside and strategize accordingly. Its a mental thing. Football just like any other high level games, its a game that requires high level thinking and strategy. Perhaps its because the English managers have never focused on the mental side of the game, always thinking, its one-dimensional, only physical. They should learn and play strategic based games such as chess as a hobby and start reading books. Play mentally stimulating strategy games and not focus on gossip columns, THE SUN and DAILY MAIL!
 
In two words; Howard Wilkinson.

"Four months after leaving Leeds, in January 1997, Wilkinson was hired by the sport's governing body in England, the Football Association, to act as its Technical Director, overseeing coaching and other training programmes at all levels of the game. Whilst at Leeds, Wilkinson had developed a ten-year plan to create an "English La Masia" at Thorp Arch.[7] In his role with the FA, Wilkinson applied this blueprint on a larger scale to the national game, developing the academy system and persuading the FA to begin the National Football Centre project. Wilkinson based the plans for the National Football Centre on the French system at Clairefontaine which nurtured the 1998 World Cup and 2000 European Championship winners. In 1997 Wilkinson published the Charter for Quality which was the basis for which all English academies were to train future stars"

Not only was the football his teams played extremely dour but he was the buffoon who sold Cantona to united for £1m.

Yup, sums it up well.
