I would say
1st Klopp
2nd Ancelotti
3rd Guardiola
4th Mourinho

That's just my opinion... What's yours
 


My opinion is that you're crazy.
I based that on Klopp has won the 2 leagues he's competed in with inferior teams budget wise, he's also won and reached the final of the champions league with these teams. I would say Klopp has the best man management skills of the four.

Ancelotti in my opinion is the best tactical manager out of the 4.... 3 champions league wins puts him in with a shout to be top

Guardiola has had the highest budget at every club he has been at but failed to win the champions league at Bayern or Man City despite untold riches.

Mourinho might have been in my top 2 for his achievements at Porto and Inter but he was poor at Chelsea 2nd time around, poor at Man Utd, and is poor at Spurs.

What's yours

I cant look beyond the fact you rate Ancelotti above Pep.
 
Ancelotti is the real deal for me, Spurs, Arsenal, man United all missed a trick by no going for him. He’s occasionally accused of being negative but Chelsea in the 2009/2010 season broke the record for most goals in a season.
 
How good they are currently, at their peak or at their peak in the premiership?
I tried to balance everything... I looked at things such as champions league wins, what budgets did they have, have they failed in jobs etc...... Because its to easy to say xyz is the best because he has won most trophies.......try and look it at this way if Phil parkinson goes who would you appoint out of them 4.

I'm going to look at this another way. Which one of these would I want in charge of our broken, stumbling, free-falling mess of a club right now? This is my order of pref:
Ancelotti
Klopp
Guardiola
Mourinho can clean the seats or sweep the floors

beat me to it!

With the exception possibly of Barca where he was in a two horse race, Pep has had comfortably the biggest budget and at every club he's managed been able to chuck money around relative to the other teams in the league. Klopp and Mourinho have both overachieved at certain clubs (Dortmund and Porto in the Champions league) whilst having to contend with greater competition. Which isn't intended to discredit anything Pep has done, I just think it makes the achievements of Klopp and Mourinho more praiseworthy. I don't know enough about Ancelotti other than he's won a hell of a lot of titles. If you were asking about whose teams I prefer to watch then Mourinho is way off the other 3.
 
Couldn’t decide until they all managed without a bottomless pit of money !

Mainz had never played in the Bundesliga and were in a relegation scrap on the verge of semi-pro regional football when Klopp took over mid-season. They went on a run and finished 14th in Bundesliga 2. Part of the reason he got the job was because he was cheap and they were already paying him anyway as a player; that's how skint they were. In a few years they were in the Bundesliga, had played in Europe and had the foundations of the decent top division club they are today.
 
1. Guardiola
2. Klopp
3. Mourinho
4. Ancelotti

Has to be this. Can't see any other alternative that isn't absolutely f***ing mental

Would also say that if we're comparing their current ability, the gulf between Pep/Klopp and Jose/Ancelotti is f***ing masssive

I wish my definition of "poor" was winning the Premier League, Europa League and two League Cups (his "poor" spells at Chelsea/Man United).

He was actually good at both imo, but the way he left clouds peoples assessment of him.

Felt a bit sorry for him at Chelsea too, never seen a team down tools like that, absolutely extraordinary stuff. He probably brought it on himself, but still there is a base level of professionalism and the players were disgraceful.

Shown very little at Spurs mind. They are really bad imo, but he hasn't been able to organise their defence which surprises me. Anyone who plays Eric Dier in a back four at that level has questionable judgement - no way the old Jose would ever have countenanced that. Seems to have lost his egde a bit, almost like in trying to play Mr. Nice Guy, a spark has gone out.

My ranking, atm, is: Klopp-Guardiola-Ancellotti-Mourinho.

But over their career, I'd say: Mourinho-Klopp-Guardiola-Ancellotti.

Maybe harsh on Carlo, but every top manager says leagues are the real barometer, not Europe. So on that basis - he falls short.

Klopp has built that Liverpool team pretty much from scratch - only Mourinho at Porto can really say likewise. Deserves respect, but this board hates him.
