He's been one of the best of a current era but Jose will better him when all is said and done. H3e's already equalled the treble and the two European trophies.
Ferguson as good as he is never tested himself on the continent either. He wouldn't have had this power at Madrid.
He did stand test of time and manged to constantly adapt to change in order to keep on winning, which is something Arsene Wenger (another gifted manager) has failed or refused to do. The other managers you mentioned may be as talented but certainly not as successful and as for Mourinho, well only time will tell how things turn out for him at the end but hes done very well so far and is very skilled at picking the right club to manage at the right time.
Look at Capello's record.
De Bosque has a great record and has WC and Euro as well as club.
Clough matahced Ferguson in Europe.
Paisley I've said.
The difference is these guys didn't stay in a job for two decades, what I find staggering is how they have matched Ferguson in Europe in a shorter time and you can say United were 'lucky' in both finals, if it were not for a couple of last gasp goals and a missed Terry penalty then it's two more runner ups.
Ferguson is without doubt a great manager, one of the greatest I've witnessed but he isn't the best of all time like the media will claim. The best try in different environments which Ferguson didn't do. Ferguson by his own admission didn't do that well in Europe, to be the best you have to excel in that department too.

I am pissing myself with laughter at this and now this computer desk smells like Fergie.
On a serious note, does anyone truly believe it will be Moyes? Unreal...

Roberto Martinez, especially if Wigan go down. He's proven he can work on a budget, at Everton his budget will just be a bit bigger. It's the next logical step on the career ladder for him, a medium sized Premiership club.stingthunder said:so who do you all think will be next for everton?
