Jesse Marsh has signed up for such a job as the latest manager of Leeds United. As Marcelo Bilsa's successor, he is not only taking the place of a manager, he is also an icon, a legend, a beloved, revered figure to follow.
Since first parting ways with Chelsea's Jose Mourinho in 2007 or Tottenham's departure from Mauricio Pochettino in 2019, the Premier League club has voluntarily parted ways with such a popular, seemingly untouchable manager.
Influenced by Roman Abramovich's wealth, Chelsea continued to do well. On the flipside, Spurs are on their third permanent manager as the pooch was expendable.
It seems appropriate to leave Bielsa purely in the spirit of football. Leeds is in free fall, staring down barrels of shipping targets and an accusation dogfight at an alarming rate which, under Argentina, they seemed ill-equipped to survive.
Bielsa's achievement has been rightly celebrated in taking Leeds from championship purgatory to an exciting Premier League resurgence. It is also fair to mention how much he was out of a minor squad and how badly Leeds was affected by injuries. But that doesn't mean Leeds was wrong to sack him.
In his place they have picked a man who has no Premier League experience and an American accent - always an easy target for skeptics.
Any pundits who had reservations about Marsh's credentials were probably among those who claimed that Bielsa had been traced and had paid the price for refusing to change his ways.
But the Argentine did not test himself on these shores when he stood on the land Road, proving the Conservatives wrong for three years and knocking England out of Calvin Phillips and Patrick Bamford. If that same Leeds hierarchy believes Marsh can do the same thing, they deserve our trust in their decision.
Leeds fans are taking to social media to post cute photos of Bielsaw with grown-up men, kids and grandparents on various streets in West Yorkshire, definitely ready to give Americana a try.
And Marsh, who took charge of RB Leipzig when the acclaimed Julian Nagelsmann left for Bayern Munich - only to be sacked after four months - is fearless to follow such a universally popular figure.
