Not a lot. Just as there isn't a great difference between dof another
Absolutely nothing! But no doubt some of the muppets on here will see it differently and argue it as much as a sweeper keeper etc

One Manages footballing operations. The other manages the first team.

Tim Sherwood
Coach sounds cool and progressive, whereas manager is a bit 80s.

Tony Parks
Even that'll be too difficult for some to grasp.
Santini/Jol/Ramos were all Head Coaches

At which clubs do you suppose one person "takes care of everything"?
The game as moved on from the days when that was possible.
In any set up (no matter what name is applied) you have a management TEAM, a number of people with a number of responsibilities.

I cant imagine Harry Redknapp the 'manager' took care of much! Wenger and Fergie would probably be the closest thing to a manager these days

Even then i bet they delegate responsibilities to Academy and reserve coaches and managers.
The only difference with us will (Hopefully, imo) be that Levy appoints them, which i my mind would make more sense. Far more continuity if the whole system isn't messed up every time a manager leaves and takes his staff with him..

Neither Wenger or Ferguson have much to do with the first team apart from on match day. They leave coaching to their coaches but have much more control over transfers or club matters (in the case of Ferguson) than we are used to.
In the case of AVB it appears that first team coach means what we had already suspected. He will probably have to work with Levy and a DoF to identify first team targets and will primarily only be involved with the first team.
I'd guess that youth, development and loanees will be the responsibility of Sherwood and Inglethorpe.
