Not for the first time, I'm not really sure what your point is.
Alastair Campbell posted this on his blog a few days ago, and it's stuck in my mind ever since.Rank the Premiership's managers according to their skill as players: this is his verdict.1. Dalglish. 2. Hughes. 3. ONeill. 4. Mancini. 5. Lambert. 6. McLeish. 7. Di Matteo. 8. Jol. 9. Ferguson. 10. Redknapp. 11. Moyes. 12. Connor. 13. Coyle. 14. Pardew. 15. Martinez. 16. Pulis. 17. Wenger. 18. Hodgson. 19. Kean. 20. Rodgers.

Genuine question as I thought they won two back to back so did he join or leave Forrest after the 1st?

Fergie 9th? He wasn't all that as a player was he?

Whichever, he was far from a world class player - even Djimi Traoré has got a EC winners medal!
Roberto Martinez is way too far down the list.I'd move him up around the level of Martin Jol and Siralex
