The best of the bosses over the past quarter of a century.
When things go right the manager is a hero, but when it goes wrong they are the first to take the blame and it is possibly the most insecure job a person can have.
So the bosses that stand out as real successes are rare and here are the top 10 best head coaches from the past 25 years of football.
10. Vincente del Bosque
Is a Real Madrid man through and through and after spending time there as a player worked his way up the coaching ranks to become manager in 1999.
After winning two La Liga titles and two Champions Leagues del Bosque was controversially sacked the day after winning his second league title in 2003.
Madrid have not won a European trophy since, but the coach has gone onto lead the Spanish national team to successive European Championships and their maiden World Cup.
