Top 10 managers of the 2017/18 season

#4 Massimiliano Allegri

Juventus have continued domestic domination under Max Allegri

Juventus clinched their seventh league title in a row and a successive third one under Massimiliano Allegri. Seriously, has the almighty even planned an end for the Bianconeri's domination of Serie A?

Max Allegri is what you call a typical Italian coach who puts heavy emphasis on maintaining a sturdy defence and making his team as flexible as it can be to various kinds of formations.

Make no mistake, the Italian head honcho has used nine different formations, according to WhoScored.com, which serves as a fine example of his astute tactical intelligence. Add the fact that he has achieved remarkable success with an ageing squad, thereby displaying the importance of a shrewd manager at a football club.

His team showed great strength of character during the quarter-finals and the semi-finals in the UEFA Champions League, albeit they could successfully complete only one of the two comebacks they attempted in the competition. Their quarter-final 2nd leg performance against Real Madrid was one of the games to watch this season. Although they couldn't grab an aggregate win, they successfully made a statement as a team that deserves being feared and respect in Europe.

Allegri has successfully clinched a domestic double this season, but the man will be hell-bent on winning the Champions League - the silverware that has eluded him narrowly for the past three years now.

However, if granted a better squad than what he has right now, it won't take time for Allegri to lay his hands on the most coveted trophy in club football.
