Across a 35-year career in football, Carlos Carvalhal has gone from a no-nonsense centre-half in his native Portugal to managing Swansea in the Premier League, via spells at Sporting, Besiktas and a 2.5 year stint at Sheffield Wednesday in which his side narrowly missed out on promotion to the Premier League in both his full seasons at the club.





As the first working manager to appear in our Ramble Meets... series, Carlos offers his insight in what it takes to be a head coach at the top level in the modern game, how easy it is to spot talent, how to deal with a talented dressing room and much, much more.





This episode of Ramble Meets... is available to acast+ subscribers from Wednesday 22nd August, and all Football Ramble subscribers a week later from the 29th.
