Since taking over Liverpool in 2015, this Red Army has obviously changed a team, whether from the technical and tactical level, the temperament of the game and other aspects have made a big breakthrough, Klopp is indispensable.

Although Liverpool have failed to win a trophy this year, Klopp has forced up the team ceiling on the basis of this squad.

In the Champions League, Liverpool also made a major breakthrough, once reaching the Champions League final to play for Real Madrid. In that game, before Salah's injury, Liverpool had more advantages, but unfortunately the first card injury brought it to an abrupt end. Kalius made a mistake and once again kept Liverpool away from the Big Ears Cup. Under Klopp's tutelage, salah, Firmino and Mane's trident shocked the continent, but he said goodbye to the 17-18 season in regret.

However, Southgate has led LinkedIn Gran to the final four of the European Nations League, and they will play against the Netherlands in the semi-finals, which is also a trophy he values more.

About the manager: Zlatko Dalić (born 26 October 1966 in Livno, Yugoslavia ) is a Croatian football coach who currently coaches the Croatian men's national football team.

Achievement of the Year: World Cup runner-up

Dalić's coaching career is not very prominent, before coaching the Croatian national team, he led a number of small teams, and the results were relatively average. After replacing Chačic as Croatian manager, Dalić first won away to Ukraine to enter the World Preliminary Play-offs, and then eliminated Greece 4-1 on aggregate in the qualifiers play-offs, successfully reaching the final round, and the Croatian Football Association chose to renew his contract. Unexpectedly, this decision helped Croatia break through the best results in history.

Croatia was able to reach the final of this year's World Cup in Russia, and Dalić played a lot of credit. While not defeating France to perpetuate the dark horse miracle, Dalic has done everything. According to media reports, Dalić's salary is only $550,000. But it is such a seemingly mediocre coach who has accomplished what famous coaches such as Loew and Tite cannot achieve.

4. Allegri

Massimiliano Allegri (born 11 August 1967 in Livorno, Italy). Italian football coach, former footballer, currently coaches Juventus.

Achievements of the year: Serie A champion, Coppa Italia

In the 17-18 season, Juve won the Serie A title in the early round, achieving a seven-consecutive victory and equaling the record of winning consecutive titles in the five major European leagues held by Lyon. At the same time, Juve also won the Coppa Italia cup, completing the miracle of winning the double title for four consecutive seasons. Under the leadership of Allegri, although the overall lineup of this Juve is slightly aging, it can still sweep the domestic arena, and it is indispensable to the excellent coaching ability of "Uncle 囧".

Unfortunately, Juve have not been able to make further breakthroughs in the Champions League in recent years. Although they have reached the final twice, they have been stolen by Barca and Real Madrid, and there is still a significant gap between Juve and the two giants of La Liga. But this season may be different, and Ronaldo's transfer will give this Juve team more possibilities. The reason why Juve firmly introduced Cristiano Ronaldo is also to impact the Champions League trophy. Allegri is undoubtedly a famous manager, but he needs a Champions League title to prove his talent.

5. Heynckes

Review 2018: Top Ten Coaches of the Year in Football, Who Do You Pick?

Manager's Bio: Josef Heynckes (born 9 May 1945 in Borussia Mönchengladbach, Germany) is a football coach and former footballer. He officially announced his retirement on June 4, 2013. He returned four years later in October 2017 to re-manage Bayern Munich until the end of the 2017-2018 season.

Achievements of the year: Bundesliga champion, German Super Cup winner, Champions League semi-final four

For Bayern, they have long been accustomed to the feeling of sitting firmly on the top of the Bundesliga. As Chairman Rummenigge said, "We deserved to win the league title. "In the league, Bayern have shown extraordinary dominance. But with a 2-3 defeat to Borussia Dortmund in the 2017 DFB-Pokal final and a poor start to last season, Ancelotti has been in charge of Bayern for more than a year. Heynckes was then tasked to continue to help Bayern set an impressive record of six consecutive Bundesliga titles.

Heynckes has saved Bayern many times in times of crisis, he knows the team too well, he knows German football too well, but unfortunately Heynckes is no longer young. Last season, he led Bayern to the final four of the Champions League, but unfortunately lost to Real Madrid in the semi-finals, otherwise it is possible to replicate the achievements of that year's treble. Heynckes is a role model for all football coaches, bayern without him even went to a standstill and are also behind Borussia Dortmund in the standings this season. In contrast, you know how important Heynckes is.

6. Guardiola

Review 2018: Top Ten Coaches of the Year in Football, Who Do You Pick?

Josep guardiola i sala (born 18 January 1971 in Sant Pedro, Catalonia, Spain) is a former Spanish professional footballer who is currently the head coach of Manchester City F.C.

Achievements of the year: Premier League Champion, English League Cup Champion, English Community Shield Champion

Many people have criticized Guardiola for leading Manchester City to win the Premier League title, more because of the influence of "money factors", after all, Manchester City has almost had a big operation in the transfer window in recent years, and Guardiola never looks at the price when he buys people. But this view is clearly exaggerated and underestimates Guardiola's coaching ability. He injected his own tactical concept into Manchester City, bringing the passing style of play to the Premier League, and under the tutelage of Guardiola, front-line players such as Sane and Sterling have gradually found their own position. Whether or not to win the Premier League championship has little to do with money. Rich Manchester City can win the championship, and leicester City, who has no money, can also, so it still depends on the coach's ability to lead the team.

But Guardiola's Manchester City failed to go further in the Champions League, and he also welcomed his toughest opponent of the moment , Klopp. Uncle Scum can always find a way to beat Guardiola, and Liverpool also beat Manchester City in last season's Champions League knockout rounds. This season's Premier League standings, Liverpool and Manchester City are also very glued, Guardiola can win several championships in the case of multi-line combat? Also worth looking forward to.
