7. Sven-Göran Eriksson
After a distinguished, yet unsuccessful playing career in his homeland he went on to become one of the most successful managers of his generation by winning no less than 19 titles with the likes of Benfica, Roma, Lazio, Sampdoria and Goteborg. This eventually led him to being named as England manager, where he stayed for five years before unsuccessful spells in charge of the likes of Manchester and the Ivory Coast, amongst others.
