Steve mcclaren did alright after coming out of Fergie's shadow, although my personal highlight of his was his foray into tv punditry😂

Arteta at Arsenal
TC took charge of Wolves for 13 games, (W=0, D=4, L=9) after Mick was sacked back in 2012. He must have realised after that stint, that he was better suited to the No.2 role.

Huge difference between boss and No.2 but one as important as the other.
Clough and Taylor were a match made in heaven.
Chris Hughton was a coach at Spurs for a very long time before going on his own.
That's a short list compared to England, Wolfsburg, QPR, Twente the second time, Derby and Newcastle UnitedQuote:
