The Best of Brian Clough Interviews - Passion, Charisma & Personality 

A lot of views in only a few days, shows how popular Brian Clough still is today. Thanks for checking the video out guys, subscribe to keep updated with similar uploads in the future.

I once walked in to a newsagents in West Bridgford, Nottingham, not knowing it was Clough family owned. BC was in there stacking the shelves, this was after he'd won the league and 2 European cups. What a down to earth bloke. ♥

I was born in 1968 and hated football as a boy. Had zero interest in it. But there was a funny man that made me laugh once a week named Brian Clough. Got to love it through the 78 World Cup and loved the game until about the year 2000. Absolutely hate what football has become now, but always will love Diego Maradona, Zico, Brazil 82 team and Brian Clough ❤

Being a Liverpool fan i obviously didn't care much for Cloughie at the time but looking back he was one of the best if not the best and a great character as well. I wish we had his like around now.

No matter how many times I’ve seen it, John Motson’s interview with Brian is the stuff of legends..

A legend in his own time , if he taught people one thing it was to be yourself and don’t worry about what other people think, genius of a manager.

I remember like yesterday when he said; I wouldn’t say I’m the best manager in the country but I’m in the top 1!

the conversation with Ron Atkinson is very prfound. He was there in a team with Greaves and Charlton. Says it all about how talented a player Clough was

As a lad from Nottingham Brian was everything to me. He would chat if he saw me. Incredible manager...and so funny. A real talent.

“ far more qualified than you or any of your colleagues “ bang! Take that Motson!

The best manager England never had what he did at Darby and Nottingham Forest will never happen again a true Managerial great

Clough, the England Manager who never was. Kids, this man is the polar opposite to Gareth Southgate. He wasn’t a yes man, he knew how to manage and he had charisma. Brilliant man.

Now I appreciate this may cause controversy but to me he is the best manager of my lifetime, what he achieved at Derby and Nottm Forest with little to no money, compared to Man Utd, Liverpool etc is incredible. I am not insulting Shankly. Paisley etc as they were excellent but it's always been Cloughie for me and I'm a LCFC fan.

When the word legend is used - HE IS!!

Brilliant video, I could listen to this man all day. As much as I hated what he did for Forest, you have to respect this man and what he achieved. Notts County fan.

I truly loved this man. He made all this Forest fans dreams come true!!

Cloughey, pure box office!

I remember when he signed Trevor Francis, he said never again would a player cost a million, he is right there, lol.

A genius.

R.I.P. Mr Clough 🙏

Amazing flashback of those times with Revie sitting there😂😂😂

In a word 'Legend' ~ If the FA hadn't have continued to appoint 'yes men' during the 70's/80's perhaps the national team might have landed a Trophy or two under 'Cloughies' tenure.

To me THE BEST manager ever, now that's a massive statement from a life long devout Leeds fan, I just think he went about it the wrong way when he first came to Leeds. Having said that he should have managed the National team without a doubt, he was also a proper character.

When managers had character and personality. Brian would be cancelled and lambasted today. And RIP John Motson, a decent man when you met him.

Just loved the guy even when we lost to him! That's what you called a manager!!

What a man told it as it was a true English football man not just a manger should have been England manger for twenty year and I’d bet England would have at least two tournament wins including a World Cup no doubt about it RIP old big head

An English footballing icon, his presence is still felt I believe.

What a bloke !!! said it how it was. RIP Brian and thaks for the great interviews and memories.

That Archie Gemmill story is great 😀

England may of had more trophies had this man been given the job..he was way before his time..but he wasn’t a yes man like our current manager..but he was an amazing no nonsense manager..He’s gone now so it’s a matter of what could have been..we may even of been as good as Germany…RIP Mr Clough..

Rip Mr Clough X

A truly great manager!

LEGENDS CLOUGHIE N MOTSON met Motty n Claridge outside Shepherd Bush Empire said too Motty that game pissing with snow ??? within 2 seconds he says Yeovil LIVED AND BREATHED FOOTBALL 💙💙💙

What he achieved could not be repeated by any other manager. Shame he turned to drink, the bottle always beats the man!

The greatest England manager we never had .

Legend

Revie & Clough both from Middlesbrough & both played for Sunderland hated each other. Add to that Stokoe, 73 Cup winner manager who accused Clough of faking his career ending injury. And accused Revie of bribery. All from NE, connected to Sunderland & all hated each other.

Shame he never managed England. They may well have won something then. Facinating character. RIP.

Brian Clough was great with players he could influence. Derby were a second division club that he took to the top of the First Division. However, he fell out with the Chairman and the committee. Leeds were the Man City of their day and Clough got the job to manage them, however, he did not get on with the Leeds players who were all internationals and leading players. They didn’t appreciate Clough’s approach and his domineering methods. When Clough went to Nottingham Forest he took over a lowly Second Division football club and players who had ability and promise but also players who were not reaching their potential. Clough then signed players whose careers were faltering and needed a new lease of life. Clough was very good at improving and influencing footballers who were willing to bend to his will. Plus he had a fellow genius in Peter Taylor. Taylor was brilliant at finding players and fitting them into a system. As an international manager Clough would not have everyday involvement, hence, his ability to influence his players would be minimal. Furthermore, when he did get players before an international match he would not have long to stamp his authority. The final point is simple the leading players in the country who were highly paid and who had utter belief in themselves would not have necessarily taken to Clough telling them it was his way or the highway.

Brian would have set the standard for the England team. How stupid are we.

He would have just loved Lineker 😁

Clough is factually wrong. Walter Winterbottom never chose England sides. That was done by a selection committee. Alf Ramsey was the first England manager to pick his own sides.

Leeds were very stupid not to give him more time in the job

His 'I believe in a different concept of football to Don... I want to be like me' answer should be anthologized, it is a prose poem. No public figure has ever been more idiosyncratically eloquent, apart from possibly Muhammed Ali.

Did Brian clough ever win a trophy with out Peter Taylor .🤔

After the booze took hold of him he was a shadow of the man he was before. Very sad that a lot of people succumb to the grade A drug alcohol

To make Forest European champions twice??? With limited funds? A decent but not exceptional squad? England would have been easy work for Clough There were not other managers that could come close to him Compare with Southgate? What could Clough have achieved?

I wonder what Cloughy would have made of this rainbow alphabet mafia B.S we have to put up with today...
