Email: fi[email protected] Edited by: JoseM´ endez´ [Received on 18 December 2020; editorial decision on 10 March 2021; accepted on 22 March 2021] We consider two large datasets consisting of all games played among top-tier European soccer clubs in the last 60 years, and among professional American basketball teams in the past 70 years. We leverage game data to build networks of pairwise interactions between the head coaches of the teams and measure their career performance in terms of PageRank centrality. We identify Arsene` Wenger, Sir Alex Ferguson, Jupp Heynckes, Carlo Ancelotti and Jose´ Mourinho as the top 5 European soccer coaches of all time. In American basketball, the first 5 positions of the all-time ranking are occupied by Red Auerbach, Gregg Popovich, Phil Jackson, Don Nelson and Lenny Wilkens. We further establish rankings by decade and season. We develop a simple methodology to monitor performance throughout a coach’s career, and to dynamically compare the performance of two or more coaches at a given time. The manuscript is accompanied by the website coachscore.luddy.indiana.edu where complete results of our analysis are accessible to the interested readers.

    MUSEUM INDEX 1 INTRODUCTION/04 2 BEST CLUBS/10 3 BEST FINALS/17 4 BEST PLAYERS/22 5 ROAD TO WEMBLEY/54 1 INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION Since the competition was founded as the European Champions Clubs’ Cup over half a century ago, only 22 clubs and 515 players have won it. But, in doing so, they and their opponents have left us an incredibly rich heritage of magic moments. You might not be old enough to remember Alfredo Di Stéfano’s Real Madrid, Eusébio’s Benfica, Johan Cruyff’s Ajax or Franz Beckenbauer’s Bayern back in the days when clubs established dynasties by successfully defending the European crown – something no team has yet managed to do since the competition became the UEFA Champions League in 1992. And exactly what is it that sticks in your mind? Is it a micro-second of breathtaking skill like Zinédine Zidane’s sublime volley in the 2002 final? Do you focus on a wider time-span, such as Manchester United’s three-minute comeback in Barcelona in 1999? Maybe it’s not an image at all, but the sheer drama of a penalty shoot-out. Or perhaps it’s an emotion rather than an image. The Museum of Champions offers you memorabilia and images to inspire memories and help you to re-live the special emotions created by the world’s top club competition.

  • The Rafael Benitez Column: We Don't Need to Respond to Fergie, We Can Let Liverpool Success Speak for Itself
    The Rafael Benitez column: We don't need to respond to Fergie, we can let Liverpool success speak for itself It has been very impressive to see how Suarez is showing what a dangerous player he is Rafael Benitez Friday, 1 November 2013 What have you made of Sir Alex Ferguson’s comments about you in his recent autobiography? The problem with answering on those comments about me - or about Steven Gerrard - is that it only adds to the publicity. All I can say is that at the time we were doing our best to defend our team and our club. We got a reaction. We did a good job. We were challenging well. They were good times for the club. We can let the things we did at Liverpool and the success we had make our answer for us. Beyond that, there is nothing more I think I can say Who are the five stand-out players in the Premier League for you this season? Well, I have to name a player at my former club. Luis Suarez. Everybody knows how he has a hunger for football and it has been very impressive to see the way that he is showing so soon – immediately - after coming back what a dangerous player he is. You will have to believe me when I say that it is not my connection with for Liverpool which makes me name Daniel Sturridge, too: a different sort of player but one who has confidence that comes with starting games. We have said several times already this season that strikers work off confidence and need to feel that they are an important part of the manager’s plans.

Spieltag der Fußball­ Ebundesliga. Ein weinender Jupp Heynckes sitzt vor laufenden Kameras in der Pressekonferenz. Das gab es noch nie. In den vielen Jahrzehnten, die der Mann vom Niederrhein den Fußball inzwi­ schen prägt, hat man schon so einiges von ihm gesehen. Doch dass Jupp Heynckes in der Öffentlichkeit weint, ist ein absolutes Novum. Man kennt den Fußballlehrer mit rotem Kopf, mit breitem Lächeln, mit tief gefurchter Stirn, mit Schalk in den Augen und mit väterli­ chem Wohlwollen im Blick. Zu Tränen rühren kann ihn offenbar nicht viel. Jedenfalls nicht so leicht. Doch dieser 34. Spieltag ist kein normaler Saisonabschluss. Es ist Jupp Heynckes’ Abschiedsspiel in der Bundesliga, und es findet in Mönchengladbach statt – »seiner« Stadt. Nach dem Sieg der Bayern­Elf wird Heynckes im ausverkauf­ ten Stadion von 50.000 Fans würdig verabschiedet und lautstark ge­ feiert. Auch wenn er an diesem Tag im Mai 2013 dort unten als Bayern-­Trainer auf dem Rasen steht, ist Jupp Heynckes im Herzen immer Gladbacher geblieben. Hier am linken Niederrhein hat er die Fußballkarriere begonnen. Hier ist Jupp Heynckes’ Heimat. © des Titels »Jupp Heynckes – Die Biografie« von Christoph Spöcker (ISBN Print: 978-3-7423-0582-4) 2018 by riva Verlag, Münchner Verlagsgruppe GmbH, München Nähere Informationen unter: http://www.riva-verlag.de 8 JUPP HEYNCKES Diese Heimat möchte er auch seinen Spielern zeigen.
