Premier League Manager of the Year: Ranking the top 5

#5 Mauricio Pochettino

Tottenham Hotspur v Brighton & Hove Albion - Premier League

Last but not the least, Mauricio Pochettino's name is bound to make a mark when we are talking about top managers in the Premier League this season. Although a trophy still remains elusive for Tottenham, Pochettino has worked wonders with the north London outfit.

With the lowest transfer budget, Pochettino has managed to cement Tottenham's place in the top four consistently in the league. Although Spurs are no match to Manchester City and Liverpool, they are the best among the rest and remain the team to beat for every heavyweight. Tottenham currently sit third in the Premier League table.

Spurs are enjoying an extended and remarkable run in the Champions League by reaching the semi-finals. They defeated Manchester City in the quarters, which is no easy task for any team in Europe. Moreover, even under the absence of talisman Harry Kane and key players, Pochettino has kept Tottenham fighting at the highest level of the game.

With minimal wage bill and different stadiums, there is a reason why Pochettino is constantly being linked with European heavyweights. When we are talking about the best managers, Pochettino deserves to be right up there.
