Sol Campbell deserves better than the Macclesfield Town job, says former England team-mate Paul Ince
Paul Ince believes former England team-mate Sol Campbell deserves better than the Macclesfield Town job, following his appointment as manager of the League Two side.Ex-Arsenal and Tottenham defender Campbell has taken on his first managerial role with the team who are currently rooted to the bottom of the English Football League.But Ince has questioned why a player of Campbells quality has been forced to take a job in the fourth tier, while more recent stars are in charge of clubs at a much higher level.4

Sol Campbell has taken on his first managerial job

Speaking on Wednesdays Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast, Ince said: I mean no disrespect to Macclesfield, but its sad that the only way someone of Sols calibre, who was a legend of the game and was a great player, can get his foot in the door is go to a team at bottom of League Two.

When people like Stevie G are going to Rangers and Frank Lampard are going to Derby, and yet Sol has got to go to the lowest club in the Football League, it doesnt sit right with me. It doesnt sit right with me at all.But hes got his foot in the door and I wish him all the best.4

Ince began his managerial career with Macclesfield in 2006

Ince also got his first shot at management with Macclesfield when they were again at the foot of League Two in 2006.He spent one season as player-manager of the Silkmen and successfully avoided relegation on the final day of the campaign.

If he can keep Macclesfield up, and its going to be a tough job, then it puts his name on the map as a manager.Thats why I took the Macclesfield job. I didnt want to be known as Paul Ince: the player, I wanted to be Paul Ince: the manager, but I had to go to Macclesfield and keep them up to do that.Meanwhile, Campbell has challenged his players to produce ‘magic’ in their bid to remain in the Football League.4

Campbell recently spent time coaching with the national time

He told Silkmen TV: “I think we can play more football to really control the games and then at the right moments I want a little bit of magic in the last third.“For me it is all about being solid, that is the kind of guy I am, but then in the last third I want players to be daring, to try thing, I want crosses, people looking for second balls, things like that.“I want the magic coming out, that is what it is all about.”Listen back to Paul Ince on the Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast IN FULL above!
