Thats the thing all the best managers have big money. Cloughie was a great but also broke a British transfer record.
The style of football and whether they win is all we can compare them on.
It would be a fair test but as we all realise its impossible. It's not a maths test where the first to finish is crowned the best.
I can only assume you are fishing in this thread.

Where does Kevin De Bruyne sit in the Premier League’s greatest player list?
He’s such a magnificent player.
His vision and execution is unsurpassed as a creative midfielder to me.
I can’t believe that Chelsea binned him off.
And that's what he can do, improve very good players, get his ideas across and get them playing for him. Management isn't just about having talent and money at your disposal, i would have thought that knowing how to manage a high functioning workforce with the intelligence needed to do their job at the highest level isn't something that could be blagged, because He'd get found out, and he hasn't, because he knows what he is doing, he's intelligent. Imagine managing the best at what they do, world level operators, that must be so demanding.
Grealish was slipping last season as well, and it reinforced my view that he was worth 100 million, couldn't cut it, was just full of tricks, didn't get on it enough. I was wrong,Pep brought him back, sat him down and reset him,that doesn't happen often with players who go to these top end clubs, they sink, because it's all about the present.
Sludge is a bitter Man U fan of old and the true colours are coming out. So hard for him to accept that the noisy neighbours have finally stolen their thunder. All the evidence is there over the last 24 hours, it’s so bloody obvious. All the ‘greedy league’, ‘money corrupts’, ‘overpaid tossers’ etc is a cry for help, it’s killing him that Man U, his closet love, have been usurped by bloody Man City, Man, bloody, City of all clubs. It’s sticking out a mile. He tries so hard to include his Old Trafford heroes in his rants as a cover but you can barely hear it, his teeth are so gritted............Discuss!!
You’re daft. And you have a grudge against something you don’t even understand.
Man City are the 4th highest spenders yet came 1st. Clearly money, whilst being an important factor, isn’t the be all and end all in determining success.
Of the 3 higher spending clubs in the last 5 years, Barcelona and Juventus have won 7 titles, Chelsea have won 5.
Man City have won 14.
Your beloved Man Utd, who have spent only £20m less have won 1 title in the same period.

I understand , money is almost certainly the most crucial factor in football
Why havnt Crystal Palace won the champions league ?
I understand that money is wrecking football
And the lifeblood of the game is struggling more and more as the power is being sucked up by the elite
And lots of people , including quite a few on here are putting these players , managers and clubs on a stage and saying oh we are not worthy
Well bollocks to that sycophantic nonsense
He will be rinsed in no time at all then you will have to find some other demi god
I think a lot of the pep loving is ott. 7 years to win the champions league at man city, with a lot of chances blown due to him making ridiculous decisions in big games. Except of course, when it comes to pep they aren't described as mistakes. People say he overthought !
In terms of him 'recruiting' players. I was under the impression man city are one of the clubs that do transfers by committee, rather than all down to manager. So more of a team effort in that respect than all down to him. Although happy to be corrected on that point.
Equally, to say the success is entirely down to money and that anyone could have done it is also wrong. The likes of Everton and Chelsea are great examples of that
