Manager: Roy Hodgson
While sometimes underrated for his style of play and unsuccessful tenure as England manager, Roy Hodgson's time at Fulham is a reminder of his elite coaching calibre. You could say that he proved his managerial quality in his most recent season at Crystal Palace.
Famously, Hodgson helped Fulham to their "Great Escape" of 2008, winning four out of the teams last five games to secure Premier League safety.
After securing the club's Premier League status, Hodgson then guided the Cottagers to a top 7 finish, before the Cottagers UEFA Cup journey in 2010. Unfortunately, Hodgson was unable to end his time at Fulham with a trophy, joining Liverpool shortly after the cup final disappointment in Hamburg.
