#4 Carlos Queiroz (2003) - Spanish Super Cup (Two months two days)
The Mozambique born Portuguese unlike the other men on the list did not have a distinguished playing career, instead spending most of his time as a goalkeeper in a lowly Mozambican club.
He has had a more distinguished managerial career, serving as assistant to Sir Alex Ferguson at Manchester United across two spells, as well as international spells in the dugouts in charge of his home country Portugal as well as South Africa and Iran (whom he currently manages).
Having proved his mettle during his first spell at United where he served as assistant manager to Ferguson, Real Madrid made the call to him to be their manager in the summer of 2003.
It was a chance to work with world-class players including Zinedine Zidane, Raul Gonzalez, Roberto Carlos, Luis Figo, Roberto Carlos, Ronaldo de Lima to name a few and Queiroz saw it as an opportunity too good to turn down.
It was to however be an unmitigated disaster, as the club finished in 4th place at the end of the season in addition to other tournament failures and marked the decline of the first set of galacticos. It is needless to state that Queiroz was sacked at the end of the season.
It was however not all gloom, as Queiroz actually got off to a good start, winning the 2003 Spanish Super Cup a little over two months after being appointed.
