Get over there and vote for Robson or Ramsey. Ferguson looks like winning it. There are some great managers in that list. |  | | |  |

Ferguson should win it. |  | | |

Just looked at it and I stand by that. Look at the honours Fergie won compared to the others. Bobby would obviously be second choice, but I have voted fairly, not by who I support. | | | |

Never went out of his comfort zone, never went into international management, upset numerous ex-players with his antics and controlling persona etc. A lot will vote having never heard of half of the others, let alone what they did.
I hate these lists, my footy chat group is all City and United fans and they just don't see things the same way because of where their clubs are now. This won't be done on quality of management at all, it'll just be success in raw numbers.
Although one of my City mates has my favourite ever conspiracy theory: SAF's legacy is built on the fact so many of his ex-players went into management and they threw games against him so they could get loans off him and stay in their jobs etc. He reckons when he's dead it'll all come out that SAF paid off half the division with pressure and favours!
Clough and Sir Bob are way above SAF in my opinion he's more like top 5 rather than clear leader. |  |

And there's a massive factual inaccuracy in Sir Alf's entry, which in a way diminishes his greatness. | |

Never went out of his comfort zone, if that’s true why did he leave Aberdeen for United who at the time weren’t exactly fantastic.
To build 4 really good teams over that amount of time is incredible and he is the greatest through the amount of trophies and how long he was at United for. |  | | |

But then look at the geographical spread of Sir Bobby's achievements. Fergie never had the bottle to try his hand abroad. | |

Why do people vote on these things? What does it matter? Why does there have to be a best? Can’t we just appreciate they’re all good managers in their own way. |  |

He did go into international management. He was Scotland manager in 1985-86. | | | |

Yeah that's fair but I was meaning more in terms of his United days and one of the reasons his detractors cite, although I rate Wenger far higher, it's rare to see managers stay at a club and do what they did. Even Pep and Jose get slated for the opposite approach.
Although it's not as if United were a step down or there wasn't a well of potential there for him. I'm not sure it's a move that really adds to argument he's the best ever on its own. | |

There are some very good managers on that list. Including several who would not come under the "usual suspects" category. |  |

Why would he? He was winning everything. Going to Barca or Real would have been a sideward step. He had as much chance of winning the Champions league where he was. | | | |

Thanks I honestly didn't know/remember that. I thought Stein was still alive for that WC. I'll not go back and add the word successfully. | |

Cruyff, Best, Messi, Ronaldo,Ferguson, Wenger, Robson, to name just a few. To say you have to win a world cup to be considered a great is a very lame argument. Many, many great players and managers haven't and some very average ones have. | | | |

Yeah I googled it to make sure I wasn't missing some glorious Scotland stint I'd never heard of! Although it's unfair to say he was anything more than a caretaker essentially.
I'm in the "why does there need to be a 1" camp as above. But I'll never give the 90's United side too much credit as they were just the first of a handful to up the ante and turn the Prem into a stagnant arms race. Fergie's best attribute was to change his assistant in my opinion. Whether that's because he fell out with them or not is a different matter. | |
