well seeing as the most successfull premiership manager ever is british, maybe we need to stop looking abroad and give someone like martin oneill a chance, he has been a success at what ever level he has managed, and teams are always a lot better when he leaves than when he arrived. i actually wanted him when they got rid of houllier. and people talking about a lack of top managers, whats mourinho, average ? premiership winner, fa cup winner, league cup winner, champions league winner.
