He is in a list that is dominated by former Liverpool and Manchester United managers…

10) Martin O’Neill, 281 games to get 400 points

The Northern Irishman has managed Leicester City, Sunderland, and Aston Villa in the Premier League, making it even more impressive that he managed to get to the points total so quickly without ever leading a Champions League side.

9) David Moyes, 272 games to get 400 points

The Scot had a torrid time at Manchester United, but he also had a long and successful time at Everton before that. Now at Real Sociedad in Spain, it may be a while before he adds to his Premier League points total.

8) Kevin Keegan, 258 games to get 400 points

Keegan had a managerial career full of ups and downs but was still fairly successful overall. Stints at Newcastle United and Manchester City helped him to the points total, and he was also in charge of the England national team for a time.

7) David O’Leary, 255 games to get to 400 points

O’Leary was in charge of Leeds during their glory years in the Premier League, as well as Aston Villa in the mid-2000s. He was known for his use of younger players while at the former club.

=5) Kenny Dalglish, 235 games to get to 400 points

The Liverpool legend had two spells at Liverpool as well as time at Blackburn Rovers and Newcastle United. He won titles with both Rovers and the Merseyside club during his managerial career.

=5) Gerard Houllier, 235 games to get to 400 points

Another ex-Liverpool manager, and the Frenchman had a relatively good time at the club without ever winning the league. He was also at Aston Villa before health problems forced him to step down.

4) Rafael Benitez, 209 games to get to 400 points

The Spaniard had spells at Liverpool and Chelsea, and has won every title possible in England except the Premier League. He has been linked to a return to the nation, but at the moment is still managing Napoli.

3) Arsene Wenger, 208 games to get to 400 points

The Arsenal manager had a wildly successful first few years at the North London club, but has since found winning trophies harder. They have still qualified for the Champions League every season though.

2) Sir Alex Ferguson, 191 games to get to 400 points

The legendary Manchester United boss has only just lost his place as the fastest to 400 points in the Premier League. His array of titles may well never be matched.

1) Jose Mourinho, 174 games to get to 400 points

The Portuguese has become a hero at Chelsea, and their win against Hull City on Saturday makes him the quickest ever manager to get to 400 points in the Premier League. He has also had spells at Real Madrid, Inter Milan, and Porto.
