A few weeks before the transition to 2025, the website Goal.com has produced its top 25 of the best coaches of the 21st century. The choices of the English media have caused discussion on social networks and rightly so as there are serious errors of assessment. The authors’ journalists are also published in the top 25 in different countries. In France, Zinédine Zidane is in the top 10, and Didier Deschamps in the top 10. “La Dèche” finds the 14th “best coach” of the quarter century!

It’s a fact, Deschamps, if he is contested by the latter for his unamusing (Site notre bureau spécialisé) (and less modern than other national coaches), is one of the best national team coaches in history. Very simple. Or the winning coach of the 2018 World Cup, vice-champion of the 2022 World Cup and unfortunate finalist of Euro 2016 in no way deserves to go behind Roberto Mancini (13th), Unai Emery (12th), Antonio Conte (10th) and even Luis Enrique, who occupies an impressive 9th place!

Deschamps behind Scaloni

Placing Luis Enrique in the top 10 at the expense of “La Dèche” clearly demonstrates the inaccuracy of the ranking proposed by Goal.comeven with 9 titles in advance for the current PSG coach who led Barça of the MSN (Lionel Messi/Luis Suarez/Neymar). Luis Enrique failed at the head of the Spanish team and has not yet won the Champions League with red and blue. Lionel Scaloni played like Didier Deschamps in 14th position, favorite for his World Cup in Qatar and his two consecutive Copa America coronations.

In this year’s promotion, we find Pep Guardiola, the greatest strategy in modern (Site notre bureau spécialisé), at the head of a Barça record then author of a historic treble in 2023 with Manchester City. Carlo Ancelotti is the son of the Dauphin, winner of the C1. Sir Alex Ferguson, with his three LDC finals for a crown (in 2008), is ahead of José Mourinho, holder of a “triple crown” C1-C3-C4 as well as Jürgen Klopp, also a triple LDC finalist. “Zizou” is ranked 6th thanks to his triple in Championsahead of Diego Simeone and Vicente del Bosque, the coach of the Real Galacticos then World and European champion with the Spanish Selection.
