Keith Andrews is one of the most prolific tacticians, currently making strides in the Premier League as the Brentford FC manager. The former Irish midfielder is one of those individuals who has taken the world for a spin with unimaginable achievements and future promises. What has made him a special character in the English top flight this season and a talk of the town is his adaptive nature in his very first year as a Premier League manager.
Taking over the managerial role at Brentford FC, replacing the club's legendary coach Thomas Frank, was no easy job. But, Andrews has quietly and steadily done the business without making a fuss. Many at the Bees were of the view that the club would collapse following the departure of their Danish coach, who revolutionised the vision and performance of the club in the English Premier League after earning a promotion from the second division. But, under the former Irish professional's management, Brentford seems to have retained the year-long process. On that note, let's discuss Keith Andrews age, net worth, family, career, bio, etc.

Keith Andrews Manager Career

Keith Andrews manager career is short yet effective. He began things off on the sidelines of his former club, Milton Keynes Dons as an assistant coach. His brief yet profound coaching knowledge earned him an assistant manager role in the Irish National Football Team. And then, out of nowhere, he landed the biggest job of his career, the manager of Brentford FC in 2025. He is currently steadying the ship of the Bees and has so far been on the positive side.

Keith Andrews Teams Coached

In the brief list of the Keith Andrews teams coached over the years, the Bees steal the spotlight. The Irish coach hasn't burst onto the scene within a day. It has taken him years to understand the essence of tactical battles, mind wars, and philosophies. From youth setups and assistant posts to coaching a top-flight outfit like Brentford FC, and that too at the worst time possible, given the departures of a long-serving manager and two to three superstars, Andrews' career reflects his outstanding growth as a coach. After the Milton Keynes Dons chapter was over, he became the assistant manager of both the youth and senior teams of the Irish Football Team. Later, he was appointed as the set-piece coach of Brentford FC in 2023.

Keith Andrews Tactics & Style of Play

Keith Andrews tactics are simple - wait out the storm of attacks from the opponents and hit them on the break. He has always been vocal on individual talents at Brentford FC, which was built on Thomas Frank's success. The Irish manager is not implementing any tactical revolution; he is just quietly carrying on an operation that was created by his predecessor.
He prefers to bet on individuals and their talents. Andrews has often emphasised that the Bees have a talented young squad and they have a supportive environment and a developing training model.
Despite being a set-piece coach himself in the last two years, he has adapted a style of play that is very similar to Frank's philosophy. He prefers to use a 4-2-3-1 formation, deploying two defensive midfielders as a double pivot. Instead of keeping possession, his team depends on counters, a strategy that clinched a 3-2 victory over Liverpool last Sunday at Gtech Community Stadium.
