Trapattoni: managers can no longer rule by fear

GIOVANNI Trapattoni believes that the days when managers like himself and Alex Ferguson could rule by fear are long gone.

“This can never work any more,” said the Ireland manager in the build-up to Saturday’s first leg World Cup play-off game against France.

“If you go back to 30 years ago, maybe people like Alex Ferguson and myself could rule by fear, but players don’t care for this any more.
