A whole season unbeaten? Just think about that for a moment. What an achievement. Surely building the greatest and best team in Premier League history takes some beating. Wenger also did it with style, always playing with flair and grace. Yes, theres been mistakes along the way. Losing the Carling Cup final to birmingham would have eased so much pressure. His stubbornness in the transfer market has been frustrating for fans who still have to pay top dollar for tickets. But its all been done on a budget. Its the classic example of finding out just how good a manager if hes not got as much to spend as his rivals. And the magic of Wenger is that hes always kept Arsenal competitive. #JOSE (special one)?? Trophies, alone, do not define a manager. But they help to justify status. So what can you say about a man who has won the Champions League with two different clubs? Has won league titles in four countries? Has a silverware count of 16 (even if you ignore the various versions of the Community Shield he has lifted)? Simply that he is the greatest tactician, leader and thinker of his generation, perhaps any generation. More crucially, Mourinho creates a bond with his men, an inner understanding of his players, that makes them prepared to cross any barrier, put themselves on the line, for him. #Alex Ferguson He transformed Manchester United from a sleeping giant into the countrys dominant football force, replacing arch rivals Liverpool as the No.1 team and forcing them into a lengthy period in the domestic wilderness similar to that which his own club had ensured for so long. His roll call of honours, which includes 13 league titles, as well as five FA Cups, four League Cups, two Champions Leagues, European Cup Winners Cup, FIFA Club World Cup, Intercontinental Cup and UEFA Super Cup. Mourinho may have won two Champions Leagues with different clubs, as well as titles wherever he has managed, and Wenger may have transformed the culture at Arsenal,ensuring they have enjoyed their most successful period in their history, reaching the Champions League in 16 successive seasons, but neither has delivered sustained glory with the same ruthless consistency as Ferguson. #WHO_Would_you_rank_yo_Best_EPL_Manager_OfAll_Tym
