Seeing as though he may well be our next manager, I'd better put Southampton's Argentine on the list somewhere?


EDIT: I failed. Only gets an honourable mention.


1. Poyet. He said it would take miracles, and he got them. Winning at Stamford Bridge against Mourinho was pure gold.
2. Pulis. Redesigned a Palace side that looked all-but-relegated after 2 months of the season, had a wondrous January transfer deadline day and has established them in the Premier League for future seasons.
3. Pellegrini. League and CO Cup most not be scoffed at.
4. Rodgers. I remember when everyone laughed at Michael Owen for predicting Liverpool to win the league. How close he was to being right. Just shows what can happen if you give your manager a proper transition season (and have Luis Suarez up front).
5. Bruce. PL safety and an FA Cup final for Hull caps an excellent season. Don't be fooled by their league position, it would have been 11th-12th had they not secured safety early and focused on the cup final.


Honourable mentions to Martinez - failed to make the top 5 because the loans carried him - and Pochettino - Southampton played some great football at times this season.
