Who's the best coach/manager?

[Untroubled by Reason]

Integrity is for losers. It's always better to win no matter how you do it. Just ask J.R. Ewing.
And Ricky Bobby, I suppose. :rolleyes:

[Teso Dos Bichos]

Again, the people on this board seem to have difficulty with the English language in general, and the use of hyperbole in particular. :rolleyes:

His team has struggled to compete domestically. It is a failure.

There - you proved my point again. Thanks for playing. :D

[zhalexei]

in Guus we trust :)

[Neapolitan Mastiff]

Rafa Benitez

[Teso Dos Bichos]

Incorrect. A domestic failure cannot possibly be the best coach/manager.

Just posting the obvious: Jose Mourinho with 271 or % of the total votes

The guy who fixed matches in Portugal, then instructed his team to dive across Europe and finally inherited the most expensive squad in history before spending hundreds of millions more? I don't think so.

Who ever voted Mourinho is out of his damn mind,he did a good job with Porto,but most of the coaches in the poll did a good job.
Then he game to a team just taken over by Abramovich who spended cash like a madman.
And even with all that cash he always failed to do anything in the CL.
The best coach by far is Hiddink,cause he can make a bumass team into a winning one.
All the other coaches in the poll need big teams to win(and even then they fail most of the time)
But Guus pretty much wrote history in country he coached.
Mourinho aint halfway there

Hiddink=glorified fitness coach.

He was only successful at PSV, though i wouldn't exactly call them a "bumass" team. Couldn't do anything with one of the most talented dutch sides of recent sides and was very poor at Real Madrid.

By "Couldn't do anything" I assume you mean going out on penalties to Brazil in the semi-finals of the World Cup, while playing some of the most beautiful football in the tournament.

And by "glorified fitness coach" I assume you mean getting S. Korea to the World Cup semi-finals (against even the most optimistic estimates), Australia to the knock out rounds of the World Cup, and Russia (a team that had never made it to the group stage of a major tournament) to the semi-finals of Euro 2008.

Yeah, you're right dude: Guus isn't too useful. :rolleyes:

that wasn't all his doing though. He got a nice little hand from FIFA since his team was the home nation.

The referees did all the dirty work, Fifa just set back :)

If you can't see that I suggest a different kind of sport for you.

what playing dirty (see the elbow on Del Piero or the hack on Zambrotta for example), or waiting for an opposition player to get sent off? or having goals that are scored against them ruled out for nothing!?
