Last season 2011/2012, winners of the Champions League, FA Cup, League Cup, Premier league, and all 3 football league trophies. How many of these winning managers have been sacked since their triumph?

    Yep, all apart from Powell. Di Matteo, Dalglish, Mancini, McDermott, Di Canio all sacked. The price of success!

    Benfica sacked Bela Guttmann after winning their second European cup in 1962. When he left he said the club would never again win a European trophy. Last night was their seventh defeat in a final since then...

    Powell is 19th on this list, and will rise to 17th once Fergie and Moyes move on. I'd be surprised is he wasn't in the top 15 by the start of the next season!

    With Poyet going, it'll be 16th!

    Know you have the right man then back him through thick and thin. That's the secret. I think we know we have the right man.

    Also didn't Real Madrid sack their manager straight after he won the european cup ( a german whose name I can not recall).

    Didn't Real Madrid sack Fabio Cappello after they had won La Liga one year?

    Yes it was Jupp Heynckes the current Bayern Manager, won the Europena Cup but was sacked because Barcelona won the league.
