JOHAN CRUYFF

One of the greatest ever, Cruyff won over 20 trophies, including three European Cups in a row with Ajax. He also revolutionised the game as a manager, winning 14 trophies, including four league titles at Barcelona, where he set the blueprint for the clubs modern success.

KENNY DALGLISH

The Scot won over 30 trophies as a player, including three European Cups with Liverpool. He backed it up as a boss at Anfield, winning three titles and two FA Cups. He also won the Premier League with Blackburn.

Kenny Dalglish lifted 30 trophies as a Liverpool player and five more as manager at Anfield

Carlo Ancelotti won the European Cup in 1990 with AC Milan and guided Real Madrid to success in 2014

CARLO ANCELOTTI

As a player, the Italian won Serie A with Roma and back-to back European Cups with AC Milan. As a manager, he has won the league in Italy, England and France and led Real Madrid to their 10th European Cup.

And here are three who didn"t cut it

ALAN SHEARER

The all-time Premier League top scorer with 260 goals and 30 for England Shearer is one of the countrys greatest ever forwards. But his spell as boss of hometown team Newcastle ended in disaster. After taking over in 2009 for the final eight games, he lost five of them and Newcastle were relegated.

Paul Ince had spells in charge atat Macclesfield, MK Dons, Blackburn, Notts County and Blackpool

PAUL INCE

Ince won two league titles with Manchester United, including the double in 1994, and was one of Englands finest defensive midfielders. But his managerial career did not hit the same heights, with middling spells at Macclesfield, MK Dons, Blackburn, Notts County and Blackpool.

DIEGO MARADONA

There is no questioning Maradonas place among the all-time great players he effectively won the 1986 World Cup single-handedly for Argentina. But as a manager he could not match his playing talents, leading his country to a 4-0 quarter final defeat by Germany at the 2010 World Cup.
