In my own experience ? i think this is more applicable in Chess Game because from my younger years as i played this game , those who are watching knows more the right move than those who is in the table, I am not saying that professional chess players do the same but what i mean are those who are non Pro in which playing in the street or those who plays against their friends .
but among those mentioned above i think this happens also in other sports.

I understand that getting a professional knowledge in coaching introduces an individual to aspects of a sport not known by all, but oftentimes i have witnessed individuals (spectators) of a sport, due to extreme love for a sport become masters of a sport so much that it seems almost like they now know the sport better than some coaches.

Whenever a game is going on say football, you always hear such individuals question the coach's line up and tactics, you hear questions like -

-Why is he (the coach)  not playing player xyz?
-why did he (the coach) use player xyz instead of players zyx?
-why is he (that is the coach) using this formation instead the other one? and so on.

-Is there a possibility that spectators of a sport like you and i with no professional training can develop a better understanding of a sport than some professional coaches of some teams?



I don't think so spectators can only see the actual game, they have no idea what's going on in practice and the condition of every player and the whole team, coaching is not only about giving instruction, it's picking the right people at the right time with the right instruction to come out with a good result,  there is a saying player win games coaches lose them.
