5. Jurgen Klopp

Having had some very solid success in both the Bundesliga and Premier League, Klopp deservedly rounds out this list. He did a particularly impressive job at Dortmund, effectively ending the Bayern Munich dynasty en route to 2 Bundesliga titles.

Whilst they’re neck and neck with Man City, he also has Liverpool in position to potentially claim their maiden Premier League this season.

Klopp is also very effective at getting the most out of his players in Europe. He has had some very long runs in European competitions, getting both Dortmund and Liverpool to the Champions League Final.

Having made both the Europa League and English League Cup finals, Klopp definitely has a deep cup run in him. That said, he often fails to get over the final hurdle in these competitions. If he can start turning these runners up finishes into trophies, he could definitely move up this list.
