When it comes to ranking managers, ****** les are a good place to start.
Only four bosses have won more than one since the Premier League era began in 1992. So if you do some quick maths, you'll probably not be surprised by the names that top this list.
But there is a debate to be had around where they should rank, and who else makes it into the top 10. So let's have it.
You can rank your greatest managers of the Premier League era below too.
Longevity deserves a mention here. Take David Moyes, for example, racking up 755 games in Premier League dugouts - only ****** ne Wenger (828) and Sir Alex Ferguson (810) have more.

The transfer market is reaching boiling point while institutional football goes through turbulent times. This August 5 comes loaded with top-level meetings in Madrid and Morocco, tensions in Vallecas, moves involving young South American prospects heading to Serie A, and an emotional tribute that has broken the hearts of both Barça and Milan fans alike.
FC Barcelona sporting director Deco has urgently traveled to Madrid to hold a summit meeting with Julián Álvarez's camp. The Blaugrana club is looking to draw up the final strategy and try to sign the Argentine striker before the market closes, with the player's own approval to push for his departure.
Franco Mastantuono's move to Fiorentina is on the verge of being unblocked. Real Madrid views a loan or a transfer with an option to buy for the Argentine gem to a top-level Serie A club very positively, in order to guarantee his development in a highly competitive league.
Milan turned out in force for the final and emotional farewell to legend Franco Baresi. Thousands of fans packed the Basilica of Sant'Ambrogio for a funeral where historic figures such as Maldini, Van Basten, and Baggio said goodbye through tears and applause to the eternal Rossonero captain.
Gianni Infantino has called an emergency meeting in Rabat alongside top FIFA executives and figures such as Arsène Wenger. Pressure is mounting on the organization's president following disagreements with member ****** ociations over commercial plans and the global calendar.

Arsene Wenger has sought to separate himself from Gianni Infantino as the World Cup investment controversy threatens to bring down the embattled FIFA President.
UEFA is actively working to engineer Infantino's removal from his role at the helm of world soccer's governing body. Infantino finds himself at the center of significant opposition following his announcement of contentious plans to sell ownership shares in competitions like the World Cup to external investors.
He was compelled to reverse course after UEFA, CONCACAF and the Asian Football Confederation joined forces to oppose the confidential proposal. There is now a coordinated push to oust Infantino, who had been prepared to pursue a fourth presidential term, as per The Mirror.

Arsene Wenger says FIFA made the right decision by abandoning its controversial proposal to allow private investment in the governing body's flagship competitions.
The former ******* nal manager, now FIFA's chief of global football development, said scrapping the plan was "absolutely necessary and beyond question" following widespread opposition from across the football world.
FIFA president Gianni Infantino had proposed creating a commercial subsidiary to manage major tournaments, including the men's and women's World Cups, with external investors able to buy stakes. The plan reportedly included an offer of $40 million (£30m) to each of FIFA's 211 member ******* ociations in exchange for their backing.
However, the proposal was withdrawn after fierce criticism, including the threat of a boycott of FIFA competitions by UEFA's 55 member ******* ociations.
In a statement released through FIFA, Wenger distanced himself from the proposal and stressed he had no involvement in its development.

Arsène Wenger has publicly distanced himself from FIFA's abandoned plan to open part of its commercial operations to private investors, revealing that he only discovered the proposal through media reports, according to RMC Sport.
FIFA president Gianni Infantino has faced growing opposition since the proposed creation of a new commercial company, which would have allowed private investors to acquire a stake in the governing body's activities.
Although Infantino announced over the weekend that the project had been definitively abandoned, criticism has continued from both UEFA and senior figures within FIFA.
"The decision to withdraw the project was absolutely necessary and indisputable, because I firmly believe in an independent FIFA that serves our sport with commitment, transparency and integrity," Wenger said in a statement relayed by RMC Sport.
"I was not involved in this project, which I learned about through the press."

Arsene Wenger, Fifa's chief of global football development, has publicly endorsed Gianni Infantino's decision to abandon a controversial plan to sell stakes in a World Cup company to private investors, describing the move as "absolutely necessary and beyond question."
The former ****** nal manager's statement on Tuesday follows a week of intense scrutiny over Infantino's proposal to establish Fifa Forward Enterprise (FFE) and offload a 20 per cent share to private equity firms.
The initiative faced significant opposition, with three continental confederations rejecting it outright, and Uefa going as far as threatening to boycott the World Cup and other Fifa competitions if the plan proceeded.
Wenger, who clarified he had no intention of following senior adviser Carlos Cordeiro in resigning, distanced himself from the FFE scheme. He ****** erted his belief in Fifa's role in serving the game with "commitment, transparency, and integrity."

Akbar Majeed takes a deep breath as he considers the legacy of the 2026 World Cup and, in particular, the effect of the US team's collapse against Belgium for a last-16 exit.
"Unfortunately, that performance in the last game did not help at all," he says.
"You have to be careful what you ask for, right?" he says. "You want people to watch the sport. You got the most people in America to watch that game and that is the product we put out there? It reinforced a lot of the thoughts about soccer."

Majeed has a lot of thoughts about soccer. As the director of Can We Kick It?, a feature documentary released this summer, he has also heard the thoughts about soccer from a cast of players, coaches, administrators, parents and fans. The project explores how the sport has engaged – and often not engaged – with Black communities in the United States.

Christos Tzolis became the most expensive transfer in Greek football history, when he signed for ***** nal this week.
To welcome the 24-year-old to the Premier League champions, let's take a look at the other Greek Gunners…
It's fair to say Giannis Tavlaridis doesn't have the legacy in England that he does in France.
Lille supporters affectionately nicknamed the defender 'Taureau' ('The Bull'), but ***** nal fans only caught brief glimpses of him, mostly in the League Cup.
Arsene Wenger became more willing to hand opportunities to young players after the move to the Emirates, so perhaps Tavlaridis was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time.

With Alejandro Grimaldo reportedly on the verge of joining Atlético Madrid for a fee in the region of €25 million, Bayer Leverkusen are already moving to identify a replacement.
According to Bild, Raphael Guerreiro is among the options being considered. The versatile 32-year-old is available on a free transfer after leaving Bayern Munich and, like Grimaldo, offers a strong left foot and extensive top-level experience.
However, new Leverkusen head coach Carles Martínez is said to prefer a more pace-driven profile for the left-back position.
Arsène Kouassi of FC Lorient, who is also being monitored by VfB Stuttgart and Eintracht Frankfurt, is seen as a good fit.
Playing with Edmond Tapsoba in the Burkina Faso national team, Kouassi would likely cost around €20 million.
