My Take
Ronny Deila fascinates me as a classic example of a player who found his real calling on the touchline. He grinded out his playing days mostly at Odd, but it was at Stromsgodset where he announced himself, lifting the Norwegian Cup in 2010 and the league title in 2013 plus coach of the year. Since then he has been a footballing nomad, from Celtic to Maccabi Tel Aviv, and I love that restlessness. There is something deeply romantic about a coach who keeps chasing projects across borders rather than settling for comfort. I will always root for managers who stay curious.
