Ferguson built his own successful United team from almost complete scratch. He's then rebuilt it over and over down the years (I could really say decades!). Paisley took over the best team in England at the time, the groundwork had been done for him by Shankly. I think it's that initial process of turning losers into winners, and making it endure after that initial winning season, that constitutes a great manager. That Ferguson has been able to do it at the top for as long as he has, incredible
