Depends how high you are setting the bar

Is Ferguson one of the greatest managers ever in word football?

Bob Paisley won it three times in eight seasons. Clough twice in two.

Where does that place Ferguson given the players/money at his disposal?

        Like Roeder innit (Other Football) - pants, Mar 6, 11:31:42
    - that Bayern-Man U final was probably the most one-sided CL final I've ever seen (Other Football) - mr carra, Mar 6, 10:56:35
      - I don't get it. United took their chances and BM didn't. (Other Football) - Only1Doherty, Mar 6, 11:00:07
        
        You're just being disingenuous now (Other Football) - norway, Mar 6, 11:26:27
        
        They were outplayed, yep. One more thing... (Other Football) - Only1Doherty, Mar 6, 11:31:05

        I've no idea tbh. I expect if you prolonged Clough's and Paisley's (Other Football) - Only1Doherty, Mar 6, 11:53:57
        
        My bad - Paisley won it three times in five years (Other Football) - norway, Mar 6, 12:18:21
        
        Much like, and it pains me to say this, the Chelsea-BM final. (n/m) (Other Football) - Only1Doherty, Mar 6, 11:01:37
    - absurd argument (n/m) (Other Football) - Charles21, Mar 6, 10:53:30
      - Why? (n/m) (Other Football) - norway, Mar 6, 10:57:22
        
        That's the nature of football (Other Football) - Charles21, Mar 6, 11:19:12
        
        Yes but it doesn't make the points I'm making absurd (Other Football) - norway, Mar 6, 11:25:20
        
        It is not absurd to say (Other Football) - Charles21, Mar 6, 11:30:31
        
        It was more than a missed penalty (Other Football) - norway, Mar 6, 11:37:44
    - Surely United's character and resolve to come back and win are positives. (Other Football) - Only1Doherty, Mar 6, 10:51:48
      - I'm not doubting their character (Other Football) - norway, Mar 6, 10:56:48
        
        didn't Bayern hit the woodwork twice? (Other Football) - mr carra, Mar 6, 11:00:03
        
        Yes they did. (n/m) (Other Football) - norway, Mar 6, 11:27:10
    - ^^^vmt^^^ (n/m) (Other Football) - colincanary, Mar 6, 10:49:52
      - This vmt was for Norways (n/m) (Other Football) - colincanary, Mar 6, 10:52:51
