There was a letter in When Saturday Comes magazine this month about players that went on to manage the same club.

Since the war there have been 13 Managers or Caretaker Managers that also had a playing career with Derby

Stuart McMillan

Jack Barker

Harry Storer Jr

Tim Ward

Dave Mackay

Roy McFarland

John Gregory

Mark Lillis

Darren Wassall

Steve McClaren

Chris Powell

Gary Rowett

Wayne Rooney

 

I wonder if any of the current squad will one day manager us? Curtis Davies perhaps?

Hard to say with the current squad. Davies I think is unlikely because he's expressed interest in media I believe. Jagielka I guess is a possibility given his age and getting involved in the coaching might have been a motivation for him to come.

I think if you were to place a bet on the next ex-player to become manager I think you would put your money on Ian Evatt (excluding the likes of Wassell in a caretaker capacity).

Possibly Steve Round or Steve Holland from outside the club. 

Neither are terrible shouts but both seemed to have firmly gone down the assistant route and I doubt given the length of their careers and the number of assistant positions held you will see a switch from that.
