To be fair, he could be an imbecile.It's crack. Has to be.
He really is.Still bitter about tevez sending them down via United.
Exactly, Wenger was apparently so far ahead of the game yet he got completely left behind and Fergie won us the league a further 5 times after Arsenal last won it.You'd think that SAF managed in 1800s and not in the 21st century. Dickgoblin at his finest, hope to never see the thick cnut back in the EPL.
Football or the media would be even betterYou'd think that SAF managed in 1800s and not in the 21st century. Dickgoblin at his finest, hope to never see the thick cnut back in the EPL.
I think Wenger has to be right up there, he brought English football forward kicking and screaming into the modern era. I'd have him top 3 easily.Wenger first haha. This guy must be trolling. I guess if top 4 is a trophy he has done pretty well though.
Pep has done well, but also spent billions.
Klopp hasn't even won the bloody league yet and even missed european football his first season.
Sure he has improve them very well, but also spent big.
Ranieri deserves first though given what he did with Leicester if you ignore doing well over time
Taking a team from the bottom to win the league is amazing like that.
I can’t be held responsible for the ramblings of a mad man. I did fall for the click-bait though.I'm disappointed @Klopper76. Poor thread!
Bout right.I can’t be held responsible for the ramblings of a mad man. I did fall for the click-bait though.
I think I’d go:
1. Sir Alex Ferguson
2. Arsene Wenger
3. Jose Mourinho
4. Pep Guardiola
5. Klopp (assuming Liverpool win the league)
Edit: Ranieri deserves a shout.
He won't let it go about that season ever. There's that and I remember him putting pressure on Benitez to pick a strong side away at Fulham and he blew his top when Rafa picked a weakened side instead and we lost 1-0 because we had CL qualification pretty much secured and we had the second Milan CL final 10 days later. If he was rating the worst managers, wouldn't surprise me if he said Benitez as one of them.Still holding a grudge because his Sheffield team couldn't be bothered to get a point on the final day and thought Fergie would bail him out. Let it go dinosaur.
I’m sorry but Poch over Jose? Seriously?Warnock has always been a league one level bitter dinosaur. I think Klopp will be 2nd on that list after Sir Alex in a few years. Assuming Klopp dominates for next 3 seasons I'd rate like this with manager achievements based on their spending limits, ability to develop youth into stars, overachieve with what they were given and innovation levels.
1.Sir Alex
2. Klopp
3. Pep
4. Arsene
5. Pochettino
Spot with all of the aboveSAF adapted to the times, rebuilt great sides after great sides and overcame so many new challenges and changes. It’s not even a debate tbh. Obviously just click bait.
1. SAF
2. Wenger
3. Pep
4. Jose
5. Ranieri (would probably be Klopp soon enough)
I’d say positions 3-5 is probably highly debatable.
To be fair, Pochettino never went to a club that gave him large amounts of cash to spend on players. This sort of list will always favor managers of clubs that are financial powerhouse and overlook managers who are managing mid or bottom table team.I’m sorry but Poch over Jose? Seriously?

I think we'll get to see Jose's true managerial ability now at Spurs.I’m sorry but Poch over Jose? Seriously?

Great responseI think we'll get to see Jose's true managerial ability now at Spurs.
There's a lot of top managers who can go to Madrid or Man City, spend 500 million, and win all kinds of trophies over 3 seasons. But I feel the true test of a truly great manager is when they go to a 6th place club in a competitive league, not have much cash to spend and very quickly land at the top, while developing youth and playing attractive football.
Klopp did it at Liverpool. Fergie at Utd. Pochettino at Spurs. Arsene at Arsenal. But I'm not so sure Jose will do it at Spurs. I'm pretty sure he won't to be honest but he could prove me wrong. But I really think this is when we get to gauge his true level where he's finally not at a club that has 10 times more spending power than everyone else in the league, like he had at Madrid, First Chelsea stint, Inter and Porto.
Aye, it’s just completely mental for anyone to not have SAF at #1.Spot with all of the above
SAF is no1 by a country mile.
If you can't gauge Jose's overall status from that stretch and need to evaluate him as an underdog then you need to expand your criteria of what's importantI think we'll get to see Jose's true managerial ability now at Spurs.

It's like judging Ronaldinho by his time at AC Milan. Mourinho was at his best in the mid-to-late 00's, why in the world would you judge his "true" managerial ability now? You know that he had won the CL with Porto, right?I think we'll get to see Jose's true managerial ability now at Spurs.
