One of the greatest footballing minds of all time. Among the all time great tacticians and managers, where do you put him ?

As high as it gets, within the top 3. His Milan team was a masterpiece.

Like Cruyff, till this very day his ideas and practices are being used.

Well, I think he's ranking pretty highly. For example, he strongly influenced Jürgen Klopp and his Dortmund side as Kloppo always states.

This really.

One of the greatest minds of football.

If it wasn't for Berlusconi , Sacchi would probably pass down in history as the best coach in Italian football , never mind Milan which i believe he was the best we ever had . Perhaps he still is ,but i think had he stayed Milan would have seen even more success than we did back then.

His offensive ideas , in relation to the quality available and the total discipline he demanded from the players , made his Milan a proper nightmare to deal with . He's involved with youngsters these years , which i think is for the greater benefit. It's true , many coaches were and continue to be inspired by his work and ideas in general.

Pretty high up , to say the least. From what i've seen of his Milan team , very high. And it's not just the end result , but his character as well. Van Basten and Tassoti meant the same to him , didn't accept the term star players and such. Great manager and even better football mind.
