I’m speaking to different managers and different people a lot - I think that's key is that you have to speak to the people. I'm fascinated with people like Sam Allardyce and David Moyes, because of their longevity of being in the game.
“As a young coach, I think how do I stay in the game for as long as Sam, as David. These are the type of people that you have to look up to and think, how do I get there?
“I'm not afraid to pick the phone up. These people that have been there, they're willing to help you, so you've got to use it. And that's something that I'm trying to do next, speaking to the right people, and taking valuable experiences from the experienced managers."
