CraccerC Posted May 25, 2009 Report Posted May 25, 2009 (edited) As the topic says, who are your favourite managers in the game other than Moysey. Past or Prescent I guess! For me... Jose Mourinho - legend, fantastic manager and a great charisma Ian Holloway - wrong career, should be a comedian. Edited May 25, 2009 by CraccerC Quote
aaron Posted May 25, 2009 Report Posted May 25, 2009 Mourinho - like you said mike legend Holloway is a fuckign comedy genious, when he was at Plymouth and they played real madrid, when asked what did it feel like he fell off the chair in shock hahahaha brilliant Roy Keane - tells it like it is, truthfully says if his players were shit or not.

marcopaulo Posted May 25, 2009 Report Posted May 25, 2009 mourinho all the way. just the infamous old trafford touchline run makes him a legend but he always could handle the SAF mind games and was just so arrogant but could back it up. quality manager the english game misses him. wenger also cos i just like his policy and its a shame he is gonna have to change it to compete but give them kids a few years Quote
c1982 Posted May 25, 2009 Report Posted May 25, 2009 Keegan, Huyton, Kinnear, Shearer - they've done a fantastic job at Newcastle this season. I love Alan Irvine and if Moyes did ever think he'd done all he could then he'd be my man for the job. Quote
dark Posted May 25, 2009 Report Posted May 25, 2009 David Moyes of course but seeing as this is non-Everton then he can't be in the list For me it would I would have: Jose Mourinhio (He is just the best manager in the world right now, he could turn a team like Carlisle into Champions League favourites) Sir Alex Ferguson (All those years at Manchester United and he's managed to keep everything in order, one of the best managers England has seen) Guus Hiddink (Maybe not the best spell at Chelsea but just look at his successes with South Korea and Russia) Quote
Romey 1878 Posted May 25, 2009 Report Posted May 25, 2009 (edited) Mourinho. I just think he's brilliant in every way tbh. I quite like Zola too. Edited May 25, 2009 by Romey 1878 Quote
Guest efctaxi Posted May 25, 2009 Report Posted May 25, 2009 Mourinho ? Not exactly had it hard as he ? Benfica , Porto , Chelsea and Inter ? Great personality , but far too much adulation in my eyes . Bobby Robson ? Now there was a great managaer This season , my respect goes out to the Stoke , Fulham , and Wigan managers . Quote
jamiemaher85 Posted May 25, 2009 Report Posted May 25, 2009 Hiddink has to be up there for the way he conducts himself. True proffesional. Holloway makes me laugh but he's failry inept as a manager. I always liked hearing him as a pundit. I've got alot of time for Owen Coyle, i think he's done a great job. Favourite manager of all time? Brian Clough. No explenation needed. None at all. Quote
Ian C Posted May 25, 2009 Report Posted May 25, 2009 Holloway and Mourinho for brightening my days Quote

zequist Posted May 25, 2009 Report Posted May 25, 2009 (edited) Louis Van Gaal - For winning with flair and always being an entertaining character Arsene Wenger - For putting out one of the most enjoyable EPL teams for a neutral to watch (usually) and still building his teams the right way even in the era of big money Thomas Schaaf - Because he knows the meaning of loyalty; this guy's been at Werder Bremen for almost 40 years, as a youth teamer, player, coach, and now 10 years as manager. Plus his teams are (again) usually pretty easy to watch as a neutral. Edited May 25, 2009 by JD in DC Quote

Jimmy the blue Posted May 26, 2009 Report Posted May 26, 2009 Like Jamie, Clough is right up there for me, I also rated Jock Stein. From the present crop and ignoring the vastly over paid foreigners that help ruin our game I like Ronnie Moore at Tranmere, Bruce at Wigan and without doubt Owen Coyle at Burnley Quote

Churinga2 Posted May 26, 2009 Report Posted May 26, 2009 i can't believe so many of you like mourinho! I really can't stand him. I like Guus Hiddink, everything he touches seems to turn gold Quote
dark Posted May 26, 2009 Report Posted May 26, 2009 On the subject of managers. Sunderland want Wigan boss Steve Bruce to succeed Ricky Sbragia as their new manager, BBC Sport understands. Bruce, 48, has been in charge of Wigan, who finished 11th in the Premier League, since he left Birmingham for the JJB Stadium in November 2007. Quote
Romey 1878 Posted May 27, 2009 Report Posted May 27, 2009 Dave Whelan said Bruce would only leave Wigan for a top 4 side, deluded fool. He's apparently given Bruce permission to speak to Sunderland as well. Quote

He's apparently given Bruce permission to speak to Sunderland as well. Sorry mate but Whelan is not deluded or a fool. Just think what he has done in the game, took Wigan from the Cheshire league to the Premiership, his club continues to make annual profits (selling players at huge profits having acquired them for peanuts) and may get upto £5 mil for a manager who was cast out by Brum.........................while doing that he built his business empire, sold it and then bought half back at a big profit to himself.....................................he is possibly the most astute guy in football having played top flight soccer himself. I have always hoped he would pack Wigan in and join our board (his is also a big mate of Bill K) Quote

Hence the deluded fool comment. Quote
